Certificates? What are you referring to in the context of OAuth?  And I 
missed something - how does Amazon play into this?

But yes, that's the page we started with.  We're now having an issue 
with the redirect URI not firing.  I'm working with the admin to adjust 
yet another Azure setting for that, but it would sure streamline the 
trial-and-error process if I could find someone who's done this 
successfully with LC.
