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>
