@dev-fairshares thanks for reporting this. It looks like this is a bug in the API -- institution status data isn't available in Sandbox, and item_logins isn't supposed to be returned in Sandbox, but instead it is being returned as null, which is not defined as a valid value for it in the client library. I'll make sure we fix this for the next client library version.

In the meantime, as a workaround, don't use include_status: true when calling institutions endpoints in Sandbox, since it's not supported in Sandbox anyway. If you need to test this parameter, use Development or Production -- it should work as long as you don't use Sandbox.
