  <h2>Select your environment</h2>

  <p>The environment must match your Remote account type and API token prefix.</p>

  <ul>
    <li>Select <strong>Production</strong> if you are using a live Remote account. Production API tokens are prefixed with `ra_live_`.</li>
    <li>Select <strong>Sandbox</strong> if you are using a Remote sandbox account for testing. Sandbox API tokens are prefixed with `ra_test_`.</li>
    <li>The environment must match the token type — a sandbox token will not work with the Production environment, and vice versa.</li>
