Endpoints filter out certain status codes, so you can't do (as in your
example) 201 Created. Here's a list of the status codes you can return:
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/endpoints/exceptions

Although if you weren't using Endpoints, you could manually set the status
code with *resp.setStatus(int)*, *http.Error(w, "error", code)*, etc.
