Hi Pawan, The client ID and client secret can be from any account. They do not impact authorization at all. Therefore, you can use the client ID and client secret from your prod account's (or any other account's) Cloud Console.
The important piece is which account you were logged in as when you clicked *Accept* on the OAuth prompt in the browser. The error you're getting suggests that you were not logged in as a user with access to the test account. Please go through the OAuth refresh token generation process again, and this time use an incognito/private window when navigating to the OAuth URL, then make sure you are logged in as a user with access to your test account.
