I appreciate your suggestion. For most of the attempts that I have made, I have used this code: nonce (DigestUtils/md5Hex (random-string 32)) nonce-encoded-base64 (Base64/encodeBase64 (.getBytes nonce)) date-formatter (new SimpleDateFormat "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'") created (.format date-formatter (new Date)) digest-as-string (apply str nonce created secret) digest (.digest (java.security.MessageDigest/getInstance "sha1") (.getBytes digest-as-string)) So the SHA1 is given a Byte array. This fails to give me a correctly formatted digest.
