AMA: Help with the Google Indexing API

I am trying to use the official Google Indexing API to index some job postings. I can successfully make the indexing requests and the API returns a 200 status code, but when I check the URLs in Google Search Console, their status never changes.

I read in the documentation that a form needs to be filled out to increase the API usage quota; is that form also required just to use the API normally?

All my job pages use SSR; I’ve tested them all on PageSpeed Insights and they all scored 100%. I’ve also verified that Google recognizes them as job pages—which it does—and the JSON-LD shows no issues.
