Not able to access Odoo custom model with API

I am new to odoo. My requirement is to add few custom models to odoo and communicate to those models through odoo api. I want through multiple tutorials for how to create new model in odoo.

Followed link (https://www.odoo.com/documentation/8.0/howtos/backend.html) to create new module and create new model in it. I am able to create module named 'openacademy' as suggested and also I am able to see on the odoo UI.

Following is the model I have created.

from openerp import models, fields

class LessMinimalModel(models.Model):
    _name = 'test.model2'

    name = fields.Char()

But when I am trying webservice from my Django project with the object name 'test.model2', it is giving error "Object test.model2 doesn't exist".

Am I missing something here? Is there something needs to be configured to access through API ?

Edit: I have installed the module and model is also getting shown under Database Structure - > Models as shown below.

You need to restart server and update your module.

Before that your py files must be added in __init__.py.

Go to Settings -> Update Module List

Then Settings -> Installed Modules remove filtration and search your module and install it.

Once your module installed your model will be created.
