note: pCloudy has no separate test-mode key or simulated environment — the product IS a real-device cloud, so 'sandbox'
  here means the free trial account plus the demo cloud and demo app the documentation uses in every example. There
  are no test cards, test clocks or fixture triggers because there is nothing to simulate. Every value below is
  published by pCloudy; nothing was invented.

  separated: false
  note: One credential set. The same email + access key mints the same token against trial and paid tenants; the
