Issues connecting to API for new environment

Greetings, We've worked with the backstage API a bit before, but for a new project, we had a sandbox environment set up for testing purposes. We are having difficulty getting our API call to work, and the errors that are returning are not at all helpful. I really wish the API responded with more information to help troubleshoot. If we use the numerical account ID provide by our account manager we get the following error: {http_status: 403, message: "Requested action is forbidden”} If we use the alpha string ID ie. "Your Account Sandbox Name" with letters and spaces we get the following error: "Bad Request" Our payload follows the JSON structure outlined here: https://developers.taboola.com/backstage-api/reference#creating-a-batch-of-campaign-items That is the method we are calling from our application, which submits the JSON object via an AJAX post. Here is a section of our code to show what we are doing: $url = 'https://backstage.taboola.com/backstage/oauth/token'; $data = array('client_id' => $taboolaCID, 'client_secret' => $taboolaSecret, 'grant_type' => 'client_credentials'); $options = array( 'http' => array( 'header' => "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n", 'method' => 'POST', 'content' => http_build_query($data), ) ); $context = stream_context_create($options); $result = file_get_contents($url, false, $context); $taboolaAccessToken = json_decode($result)->{'access_token'}; $ch = curl_init('https://backstage.taboola.com/backstage/api/1.0/'.$taboolaAccount.'/campaigns/'.$campaign_id.'/items/mass' ); $payload = json_encode($collection, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, ‘Our Application Name'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $payload ); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array( 'Content-Type: application/json', 'cache-control: no-cache', 'Authorization: Bearer ' . $taboolaAccessToken )); $data = curl_exec($ch); $info = curl_getinfo($ch); curl_close($ch); Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
