Since a week i'm trying to get the REST API to work but without success,
i searched the whole internet for a solution. Everytime when i try to connect to the Magento REST API i get the
Error 401 oauth_parameters_absent=oauth_token.
I'm using the firefox RESTClient and i have 2 seperate Magento installations on different server with different versions (1.7.0.2 & 1.9.0.1) but on both systems the same error.

Maybe someone could help me im really getting desperate
