Delete Specific Key from KVSTORE

I am using the Mimecast v3.1.1 App/Addon and Ia m am trying to delete a specific key the application inserts into the KVSTORE.

The problem I am having is that the key is a pipe delimited series of values have have been URL encoded.

I created my own entry allowing the KVSTORE to create the key for me and deleted it successfully using a curl command, but I cannot use the same command to delete the URL encoded key.

This was successful
curl -k -u admin: -X DELETE https://x.x.x.x:8089/servicesNS/nobody/TA-mimecast-for-splunk/storage/collections/data/TA_mimecast_f...

This failed
curl -k -u admin: -X DELETE https://x.x.x.x:8089/servicesNS/nobody/TA-mimecast-for-splunk/storage/collections/data/TA_mimecast_f...

The error I receive is object not found. The actual key value was copy and pasted from the output of this command:

curl -k -u admin: https://127.0.0.1:8089/servicesNS/nobody/TA-mimecast-for-splunk/storage/collections/data/TA_mimecast...
