 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to solve an issue on setup with the following (anonymised) debug message:
 *     ```
       Debug Messages
   
       Preparing request data

       Response body: {"errors": [ {"message": "Forbidden."} ]}
       Error in transmission
       ```
   
 * API key has full permissions & everything is “ready to send” on the Sparkpost
   dashboard.
 * Any ideas?
