How to call REST API from BIRT report with JWT token

Krunal Umak

I have a requirement of calling REST endpoints from BIRT report. I created a simple report which is consuming response and showing data correctly. 

But I could not find solution for below use cases:

1. REST call to fetch JWT token using credentials.
2. REST call to any request with already fetched JWT token
3. REST call to for pagination support
1. In a report one shot ( report should call implicitly multiple requests)
2. In report pagination, call APIs on click of next /previous button

Sharing the internal response on the forums:

Use BIRT scripting and an HTTPConnection object.  Do a Javascript eval() call to parse the results.
