How to connect Zapier to a Stripe sandbox account

  • I have a working Zapier account connected to our (live) Stripe account. Zapier is also connected to firebase and google sheets, all working. I wanted to separate development environment from production.  I created a new firebase project and made a sandbox in Stripe.  From the start, it looks like Zapier accounts can only have 1 connection to 1 stripe account.  I am trying to build the system so I created a new Zapier account planning to connect it to the Stripe Sandbox account.  I followed  directions, but have been thwarted.  When I try to create the connection, I get a place to input an optional test api key.  I believe this is for the older Stripe “test mode” so i skip that and go to the oauth for Stripe, where it shows the live account (selected) and if i click “see 2 ineligible accounts” it shows the sandbox accounts (there are 2).
    How do i use the sandbox accounts from stripe?
