I have a custom type and I want to be able to filter in the rest API only those that belong to a category.

How can I do it?

Hello,

It needs custom codes. For example, you can follow WP document :
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/rest_this-post_type_query/
Use filter hook rest_{$this->post_type}_query to trigger a PHP function, and add a custom endpoint, and filter the result by taxonomy, see similar thread here:
