Ember data route with handler and api call in different location

Question

Im new to Ember development and trying to build an Ember app using Ember data which connects to an API.

My API in the location http://localhost:3000/api/panelists returns

{  
   "panelists":[  
      {  
         "id":1,
         "secret":"",
         "isDisabled":"false",
         "disabledAt":"null",
         "isLocked":"false",
         "isSecretExpired":"false",
         "invalidAuthCount":"0",
         "givenName":"Sma",
         "middleName":"na",
         "surname":"ran",
         "avatarMimeType":"JPEG",
         "avatarFilePath":"/home/sample.jpeg",
         "createdAt":"2015-11-27T12:17:05.000Z",
         "isDeactivated":"false"
      }
   ]
}

Now in my Ember App, the model handler for this case is in the following location, App_Root/app/panelists/model.js

The specific required route is in the following path, App_Root/app/directory/route.js

Now, how do I hit the API http://localhost:3000/api/panelists with model App_Root/app/panelists/model.js and with the route App_Root/app/directory/route.js?

Current Implementation: route.js

import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Route.extend({
  model() {
    return this.store.findAll('panelists');
  },
});

Getting the following error in browser:

WARNING: Encountered "panelists" in payload, but no model was found for model name "panelist" (resolved model name using golf-digest-panelists@serializer:-rest:.modelNameFromPayloadKey("panelists"))

Thanks in advance for the help

This path App_Root/app/panelists/model.js is wrong for your model. It should be App_Root/app/panelist/model.js without plural. Also, if you aren't using a pod structure, the common path for models is App_Root/app/model/panelist.js.
