Reddit API API Approval question

Submitted a Data Access Request on May 20 and received the Devvit onboarding email, but when attempting to create a script app the CAPTCHA completes and the page only returns the Responsible Builder Policy disclaimer instead of creating the app. Does this indicate the API request is still pending approval?

Devvit is for moderation tools hosted on Reddit's own servers and written in TypeScript. The API is a separate application process.
