    According to Google AppEngine docs:

    Properties of an embedded entity are not indexed and cannot be used in queries. You can optionally associate a key with an embedded entity, but (unlike a full-fledged entity) the key is not required and, even if present, cannot be used to retrieve the entity.

    You can find more here in Embedded Entities.
