It was because it was a linked account and the account owner had the email address used to log in set to standard access. When they changed it to admin access, then the new account button was available and the API worked.
I thought all the account numbers were the same, regardless of the email address/Google account used to log in? How does it know the email address anyways? It's not part of the authentication. I don't remember which login the refresh token came from.
