Making payments live in Authorize.net - authorize.net

I have done testing in my project using sandbox account of Authorize.net. I want to make it live. What is the procedure and changes to my project to accept live payments from customers? What is to be done at Authorize.net side? Do I have to pay or make any account?

Authorize.net is only a payment gateway. They facilitate payments between a website and a merchant account account/payment processor.
To process payments in your website using Authorize.net you will need to be a registered business physically located in North America (United States and Canada). You also will need a merchant account which can be applied for through Authorize.net although you can get one from any US and Canadian merchant account provider.
Once you have a merchant account linked to your Authorize.net gateway you can use your production Authorize.net account, which is not the same one as your sandbox account, to process payments through your website.

Turn ON sandbox mode on AWS Cognito

I use Cognito service for my users. I also use my SES with Cognito to send emails to them.
I have two accounts on AWS - one for development and the second one for production. The development account uses my production domain when sending emails, and after many testing emails sending, the reputation of my domain decreased. Now I want to turn sandbox on on my development account for cognito and SES, but I cannot find where to do that, as the documention of AWS only shows how to go to production.

Fetch all emails from all accounts in my domain

I have already created a web platform to allow users within my organization with an #xxxx.com account to authorize their Google Accounts to send/receive email messages within the platform. The new messages reception is currently done manually by a "New Email" button, but I require an automated process running in the background to pull the email messages frequently.
I tried to do it with refresh_tokens for offline access and a periodic cron job but because there are a lot of users' accounts, that process would take too long to connect to each account, pull messages, and such. This may not work properly.
Is there any other way (using an API) to pull the users account email messages directly (something like an Audit or SuperAdmin account)?

Yes, it is called G Suite Domain-Wide Delegation of Authority.
In summary, you create a service account and use that service account to access email for all users in your domain. You can also use this method to send email on behalf of users.
I have done this many times. An important tip is to follow the instructions "exactly" otherwise you will get permission errors.

PayPal Express Checkout
PayPal Express Checkout for Authorize.Net enables you to offer PayPal as a payment option to your customers by incorporating it within your existing API implementation.
They do not. They are merely a payment gateway which connects a website to a merchant account. Paypal is a payment services provider and offers payment services that traditional payment gateways do not.

What is a "user pool" in Amazon Web Services?

I see the term "user pool" in lot of amazon documentation, but I can not understand what it is. What does it mean?
Copied from the AWS blog post announcement New - Your User Pools for Amazon Cognito:
With the user pools feature, you can create your own user directory that can scale to hundreds of millions of users, and is fully managed so you don’t have to worry about the heavy lifting associated with building, securing, and scaling authentication to your apps. This feature also provides enhanced security functionality such as email verification, phone number verification, and multi-factor authentication. As an app developer, you already had the option to use an external identity provider such as Amazon, Facebook, Google, Twitter or Digits for this purpose using the Cognito feature that we now call Federated Identity Pools.
