Skip key generation if using sandbox pod

Feature Request

Description of Problem:

Developers using the developer sandbox pod @ develop2.symphony.com typically use the generator as a result of following course content on the certification program. The sandbox operates differently from a typical company-managed pod since service accounts and their keys are generated and supplied to developers rather than the other way around. As such, the default behaviour of generator can be confusing to new developers who are not sure what to do with the generated key and why they are asked to visit the admin portal when they do not have admin access.

Potential Solutions:

  • Skip the generation of key pair if the host supplied uses develop2.symphony.com
  • Provide an appropriate end message for the developer to use their supplied key instead
  • For non-sandbox hosts, clarify that the end message is meant for pod administrators to action
