Extend Magento REST API in custom module

Question

I want to use Magento Rest-Api to add custom data into Magento table. I have added one table into Magento db and created module with Rest API for that using following link

Answer 1

magento\app\code\core\Mage\Api2\Model\Resource.php is only allowed collection action type for create method.. so changed in api2.xml file and setup required fields in attribute tag

magento\app\code\community\MagePim\Extapi\etc\api2.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <api2>
        <resource_groups>
            <extapi translate="title" module="api2">
                <title>Custom API calls</title>
                <children>
                    <extapi translate="title" module="api2">
                        <title>My Api</title>
                    </extapi>
                </children>
            </extapi>
        </resource_groups>
