- Try it: `GET https://developers.rivr.io/errors/simulate/clinic_connect_not_a_sandbox_clinic` answers with the code's exact wire form; `?succeedAfter=N&attempt=K` gives a 200 once `attempt` passes `N`

## What it means

The sandbox's approval applies only to clinics marked as sandbox clinics. This goes for every other clinic, also one that doesn't exist.

## What your system does

Use one of the sandbox clinics Rivr has created for you. With another test clinic the connection goes through a real BankID sign-in, once the clinic is ready to take payments.

## Is it worth retrying?

No, not without changing the call.

`retryWhen`: `after_fix`. Change the request first, as the code's page says: a value, the token, a header or a new key. Then send it.

## Did anything happen?

`outcome`: `none`. **It did not happen.** This call did not do what you asked for and changed nothing else that you can see or that concerns money. Where the code has an `outcomeNote`, it takes precedence.

## Example: The account connection (/oauth)

Cache-Control: no-store

{
  "code": "clinic_connect_not_a_sandbox_clinic"
}
```

The `title`, `detail`, `message` and `error_description` texts are exactly as the API writes them today.
