Assuming you only want to filter out the elements from contacts. You can easily filter out unneeded objects from contacts array with array.filter().

Checkout the below code.

var data = {your json object stuff....}
 //Filter out the contacts with 'selected=false'

 data.draftData.contacts = 
data.draftData.contacts.filter(contact=>contact.selected===true);

//Modified contacts that include only the objects with selected property equal to true.

console.log(data);
