Thanks Ewan for clarifying this! You are right: a dev token is not tied to 
a specific account.  I did some testing with my own account 
credentials. Login data is used for account access validation only. So we 
don*t need to transfer our token.

Thanks again for this hint. I know API t&c by heart (did I mentioned this 
veeeeeeeery long conversation we had to get free API units - I had to read 
this stuff over and over ;) )

In most cases you can actually get an outside developer to build your

We are aware of this. Creating very specific test cases with the sandbox is 
quite terrible...
