Data extraction from a list of tuples of dictionaries in python

I'm trying to retrieve the users data from my an appsflyer API and the output of the API is as follows:

EDIT:

api.py is where my dataclass was defined:

import dataclasses
import Optional

@dataclass
class user_api:
   id: str
   account: str
   email: Optional[str] = ""
   phone: field(repr = False)
   active: field(repr = False)
   state: field(repr = False)

app.py

import api
import requests

response = ('some code to authenticate the api and get data').json()

response_data = [getattr(api, appsflyer_endpoint)(**i) for i in response[appsflyer_endpoint]] 
#Here api is imported from above dataclass

I'm getting the below result when I print the response_data. I don't want to change the output format because this format is being used across different applications.

I just want to extract some specific fields from the final response

    [User(id = 1, account = 234, email='[email protected]', 'phone':{'sms':2, 'email':2}, active: true),
     User(id = 2, account = 567, email='[email protected]', 'phone':{'sms':1, 'email':1}, active: true, state: 'NY'),
     User(id = 3, account = 890, email='[email protected]', 'phone':{'sms':2, 'email':2}, active: true)
    ]

How can I extract the only particular fields from the above data i.e. id, account and email

The final output I'm expecting was

[User(id = 1, account = 234, email='[email protected]'),
 User(id = 2, account = 567, email='[email protected]'),
 User(id = 3, account = 890, email='[email protected]')]

I tried to extract its data from a tuple but didn't work. I'm not sure about this type of data format

One option is to exclude fields from the string representation of the User dataclass. That way the object will still have the "extra" attributes in the background. For example,

@dataclass
class user_api:
   id: str
   account: str
   email: str
   phone: str = field(repr=False)
   active: str = field(repr=False)
   state: str = field(repr=False)
