gChat API - App Home request not providing user JWT token

I have a Google Chat app with App Home setting enabled, which sends the request via webhook. Looking into the authorizationEventObject, I see something called userOAuthToken with a JWToken, but when parsing the JWT value, I see only generic info related to google chat. It’s not exactly an user token.

Upon further investigation, I found out that some additional permissions are required (…/auth/userinfo.profile) in the app’s data access, so I added this permission there.

After unninstalling and re-installing the app, I still see no user related data.

Am I missing any additional steps?

Thanks in advance!
