Creating an API connector to pull web data

Q&A
1

Using Bonitasoft 7 community edition.
Using Yahoo yql, to get a Yahoo finance API.

I have created API calls in forms to get data from Yahoo.However I need to create a call for the same information within the process.

This seemed like viable option however I have been unable to get it to integrate with Bonita 7

I have been getting the error,

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.ConversionException: org.bonitasoft.connectors.rest.RESTResult : org.bonitasoft.connectors.rest.RESTResult

com.thoughtworks.xstream.mapper.CannotResolveClassException: org.bonitasoft.connectors.rest.RESTResult

Does anyone have a recommendation for making an this kind of connector? Or another kind of call for information?
