I noticed that other examples use a singleton object instead of class,
so I changed my code, but I just get the same sort of error but for an
object:

object creation impossible, since method createTag in trait
XMLApiHelper of type (scala.xml.NodeSeq)scala.xml.Elem is not defined
RestAPI.scala   /poc/src/main/scala/com/somecompany/api Unknown Scala
Problem
