  SharePoint has no test-card-style sandbox; the equivalent is a free, isolated Microsoft 365
  developer tenant with pre-provisioned SharePoint sites and sample data, obtained through the
  Microsoft 365 Developer Program. Developers exercise the real SharePoint REST / Graph APIs
  against this throwaway tenant rather than a mock endpoint. No test values are invented here.
