How do I use a stored payment source for a purchase in ActiveMerchant?

I'm using ActiveMerchant with Braintree as my payment processor. I want to take advantage of Braintree's customer vault functionality to store credit card info.

Storage goes fine, but I can't figure out the correct way to charge the credit card with the customer_vault_id. It seems very straight-forward according to the Braintree documentation, but I'm not sure how to pass this through ActiveMerchant. I get validation errors from Braintree if I send a credit card with empty data, and errors from ActiveMerchant if I try nil. The only thing that seems obvious is to send the customer_vault_id in the purchase_options hash, like:

GATEWAY.purchase(self.price_in_cents, self.credit_card, 
                 :ip => self.ip_address,
                 :customer_vault_id => 12345)

Is this the correct way to use a stored customer vault?

If so, what is the correct second argument for this line if I want to use a stored customer vault as payment method?

Thanks.

After you call #store on the gateway, you will get a response, which you need to store the authorization.

Per the docs found in the wiki: https://github.com/activemerchant/active_merchant/wiki/Patterns-&-Standards

store It's critical that store returns a token that can be used against purchase and authorize. Currently the standard is to return the token in the Response#authorization field.

payment method String/token: Representation of a payment method tokenized via store

e.g.

gateway = ActiveMerchant::Billing::BraintreeGateway.new(login: login, password: password)
credit_card = ActiveMerchant::Billing::CreditCard.new(
                :first_name         => 'Bob',
                :last_name          => 'Bobsen',
                :number             => '4242424242424242',
                :month              => '8',
                :year               => Time.now.year+1,
                :verification_value => '000')
response = gateway.store(credit_card)

I discovered that you can substitute the customer_vault_id as a string for the ActiveMerchant::Billing::CreditCard in the purchase method. The docs really don't have any indication of this :(
