Direct answer to the question : I use GET to explain.

-With standard GET, it is not possible to filter by non-key fields in the data set which is returned.

- But with Function import : GET, it allows to filter data from non key fields

In below table: if you need to get all the user IDs for India, that's not possible with standard GET. (GET Entity method)
-with function import: GET , all the 3 userIDs are returend when India is passed in URL as a query parameter.

Refer to undertand when to use Function Import

Thank you
