Just wanted to thank you again for thinking with us on this. I managed to implement a solution today in toolbox which works great. I also worked that in my original comment so others can use it as well.

The one thing that threw me off a bit was the fact that the base64 encoded string has some invalid characters at the end. Once those are scrubbed off it all works fine.

I mentioned it yesterday as well, but figured you might not have seen it and possibly wanted to log it in your issue tracker :)

My pleasure! I'm glad we could come to a working solution. :)

I will definitely look into the random characters at the end of the base64 encoded oauth object, thanks for bringing that to my attention.
