401 on sandbox

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

I just upgraded from 0.0.2 to 0.0.9 so that I can use the sandbox.

When I instrument my app using my production API account + key, it works great:

c2-dev-6 { username: 'ABC',
c2-dev-6   apiKey: 'XXX',
c2-dev-6   format: 'json',
c2-dev-6   sandbox: 'false' }

But when I instrument my app using my sandbox API account + key, I get 401 when I send a message:

c2-dev-7 { username: 'ABC',
c2-dev-7   apiKey: 'YYY',
c2-dev-7   format: 'json',
c2-dev-7   sandbox: true }

Any thoughts? I’ve tried passing true as both as a string and boolean.

When developing on the sandbox environment, please use sandbox as the application username. We switched to this pattern about a month ago. The authentication params become username: "sandbox" and in your header object apikey: "your-sandbox-api-key".

I should also mention that whenever you update your apikey, the new key doesn’t take effect immediately, instead, it will take effect in 5 minutes or less.
