I am using the REST API Oda plugin for Birt from https://communities.opentext.com/forums/discussion/61303/rest-api-oda-plugin-for-birt.

However, while creating data source from an API, and trying to test connection through the httpRequests, it gives a ping failed message with following error message:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.restapi.impl.Connection.open(Connection.java:50)

at org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.consumer.helper.OdaConnection.open(OdaConnection.java:250)

at org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.profile.OdaConnectionWrapper.open(OdaConnectionWrapper.java:209)

... 47 more

Any of you have any idea what it means.
Or is there any easier way to get data into birt from Restful API?
I am a PHP developer and don't have much idea in Java. Struggling with this for 3 weeks now.
