Additional information

I have been trying to leave a reaction to a PR review comment, following the documentation available here: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reactions/reactions?apiVersion=2022-11-28#create-reaction-for-a-pull-request-review-comment

I've tried to create PATs for multiple accounts, and even tried to use a PAT of the same user who left the review on a PR in a repo owned by that user, but with every one of those I've always received the response

Insufficient scopes for reacting to this Pull Request Review Comment. (HTTP 403)

I've tried doing this with both curl and the gh api CLI.

I don't know if the documentation is wrong/outdated or if I'm doing something wrong myself, but I believe I've created a fine-grained PAT with write access on the repository as asked
