I would recommend reading all of the Endpoints documentation (which isn't a lot), starting with the overview <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/endpoints/>, as it will answer all of these questions. Endpoints handles the conversion of models to messages for you, and communicates using JSON. You can generate client libraries automatically, or you can talk to your Endpoints back-end directly over HTTP.
If your question is how to create a REST API without using Endpoints or any library, you're essentially asking how to write your own REST framework which is probably outside the scope of a Google Groups post.
