Can node refferences be automatically resolved in a view?
Views relationships are used to bring in data from referenced nodes. From your view's administrative page, expand the Advanced section and add a relationship. Select the appropriate node/entity reference field that bridges your nodes. Now you can add fields to your view and configure them to use your relationship, which will pull in any data from the referenced entities/nodes. At this point your view should contain data you want, making it available to the web service.
