All Sandbox institutions can be accessed using the Sandbox test credentials.
Note that when testing OAuth in Sandbox, the OAuth flow for Platypus will be shown instead of institution-specific flows, and institution-specific behaviors will not occur, except at test institutions as shown above.
None of the institutions in the list above use OAuth flows except for those that are explicitly marked as OAuth or European / UK institutions.
