Can I use my test environment merchant ID and keys to test a flex microform post?

I'm getting started understanding what's required for Cybersource's Flex Microform integration. But to start with, I'm hoping to be able to see a valid response using my merchant ID, shared secret key and the general key that comes with generating the secret on the cybersource api reference page: https://developer.cybersource.com/api-reference-assets/index.html#flex-microform_key-generation_generate-key

This is using the HTTP Signature method and ChasePaymentech (default) processor.

If I use the default settings they supply and choose to do a test POST to here https://apitest.cybersource.com/flex/v1/keys?format=JWT& /echat spin

The JSON response is good with no complaints of authentication.

If I try to do the same POST with my test environment merchant ID and keys I generated in my merchant environment here: https://ubctest.cybersource.com/ebc2/app/PaymentConfiguration/KeyManagement /echat random the POST response will return a 401 with this JSON:

{
"response": {
    "rmsg": "Authentication Failed"
}}

Is this developer.cybersource.com site a valid place to perform this kind of test? Are there any other steps I need to do in the merchant account to have this Authenticate?
