Generate random string for nonce parameter in OAuth 1.0 authentication?

I am trying to configure a REST call with OAuth 1.0 token based authentication. For the generation of the session token, I need a unique random string, the socalled nonce. Do you have an idea how to generate such a unique random string directly in Workato?

Hi Gabriel, 


I think your previous post where we are converting time stamps to UNIX should suffice for creating a unique random string. 


As for using our HTTP connector for OAuth1 connections, it is possible but might be quite complicated.

Hi Gabriel, thanks for reaching out! Were you using our HTTP connector? Our HTTP connector currently only supports Basic and OAuth 2 Authentication.
