REST doesn't know anything about tables. It's a style of resource addressing. A "resource" here means something you can talk to over HTTP .That may or may not have a one-to-one correspondence with something in the backend or persistence layer of your application. For anything even vaguely complex -- a blog post, a travel booking, a recipe, an address book entry-- it will refer to more than one object, so your case is typical, rather than unusual. Essentially, here, your "resource" is supported by a single view. That view can do whatever it needs to in order to store the information supplied (or retrieve the information requested). It may well have to split up the input and store it into multiple models. That's what views are for: executing any Python code you need to.
