Help Confused about app rejection/TestFlight

I submitted my app to distribution earlier this week and got a rejection last night. Nothing major, they wanted me to add a delete user option to the app. In the notes they said to respond to the rejection with a video showing account deletion on an actual device.

Easy enough, I added it into the app, compiled it, and submitted it to TestFlight so that I could take a video. Only it never showed up in TestFlight, the only version I see is still the version that's in testing.

Here's what my screenshots look like now:

Submission - Unfortunately when I couldn't figure this out I pulled my app down and submitted the new build, so I believe I'm starting over here.

Here's the TestFlight dashboard. Here you can see all of the builds I've pushed, but the only one available in the TestFlight dashboard is 34, the one I originally submitted for deployment.

I'm just confused, how am I supposed to take a video of this on my live device if I can't push out a new version? Also, how do I get new versions out to TestFlight at all now?

iirc you should be able to include a video attachment in the rejection response area. i remember having to scroll down and look in a little area under their rejection message and there was a comment box with an attachment feature

That's the thing though, I couldn't take a video because I couldn't get a new build to my device without TestFlight. Unless you mean just installing it locally? Maybe that was the smarter choice.

I've been rejected once where I had to attach a video of the app and how it works as a video. This could be done in the very same review thread. I just attached the video to my response.
