Is it possible to create views using the REST API?

Question

I cannot find any documentation that explicitly states whether or not it is possible to create views using the REST API (or programmatically in general). 
 
 I have a use case where I need to create a large number of views, and using the REST API I can navigate through the views/folders/locations where these new views need to be created. Ideally I would be able to create the new views as my program walks through the existing vault structure. 
 
 I have tested some code (python) and I am able to create objects of various classes and assign properties, but I have not found a way to create a view from the REST API. 
 
 Is this possible? 
 
 Thanks!

I'm assuming you cannot construct the view in such a way that the second level can also be a grouping? 
 If not then our COM API definitely allows creation of views natively. Another alternative would be to add your "view creation" code - which would use the COM API - to a vault application and expose it as a vault extension method. You could then call this via the REST API.
