I reported to support. They indicated that they could not help me. After several interactions, support indicated they had no examples - and did not know how to help me.

  Hi DavidK3 , regular support staff won't be able to help you ; you need to contact MYOB API support by lodging a ticket here (various information is required):
  
  Submit a request – Support for the MYOB family of SME product APIs
  
  There are many articles here:

  The (truncated) value returned to your redirect URL will look something like this (you need to extract the highlighted section, other sections are explained in the above link):
