How can i retrieve a list of posts from my wordpress-rest api, with the sticke posts on top?

When I want to get the posts from my Wordpress Rest API, the sticky posts are not at the top, but are sorted by date like the others.

When I try to sort by sticky

wp-json/wp/v2/posts?orderby=sticky


I get this error message:

code: "rest_invalid_param",
message: "Invalid parameter(s): orderby",


If I append the following parameters instead

wp-json/wp/v2/posts?ignore_sticky_posts=0


or

wp-json/wp/v2/posts?ignore_sticky_posts=1


the sorting does not change.

How can I make the sticky posts always be at the top?
