Hello,

I’m kind of stuck at the same problem. I need it for a Rest API call, a certain part of a url needs to be in base64.

From “_urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.file:vf.EKZOuGboShKXrj24Ezhj4g?version=2_” to “_dXJuOmFkc2sud2lwcHJvZDpmcy5maWxlOnZmLkVLWk91R2JvU2hLWHJqMjRFemhqNGc/dmVyc2lvbj0y_”. [Done with codebeautify.org](https://codebeautify.org/base64-encode)

I tried to solve it with a R snippet, [as seen here](https://forum.knime.com/t/base64-decoder/11052/3), but no sucess.
