 * I have not dealt much with the WordPress REST API so far!
 * The IDs of the images you add to a post are saved as metadata for that post. 
   The meta key used for this is “_smfi”. For each image added, an entry with the
   meta key “_smfi” is created. Each entry with this meta key has as value an associative
   array with the array key “img_id”.
 * You could certainly use the WordPress REST API to query the metadata and find
   out the corresponding IDs of the multiple featured images. Then you could use
   the IDs to query the image information from WordPress (such as the URL).
 * The plugin currently does not offers simplified interactions with the WordPress
   REST API. If there is enough demand, I would implement it.
