Hi,

On the API Store UI, whenever you generate credentials for an Application
it also generates for you an OAuth 2.0 Access Token. This Access Token
shouldn't ideally be used by any Application because its basically a token
we generate for testing purposes (i.e for the API Console to work).

However, I have seen this token been misused by many by hardcoding it in
their Apps, etc. Which potentially compromises the security of those
Applications as well. Should we remove it from the UI completely? Or maybe
make it pretty obvious on the UI that the token is a "Test" Access Token?

Thanks,
NuwanD.
