How to get read_all_orders scope access for a private custom app?

Authentication & Access
1

I want to get read_all_orders scope access in my shopify private custom app. In the documentation it is mentioned that private apps are automatically granted access to this scope, and don’t have to request access from shopify, but when i add this scope in my toml file and try to deploy, I get version couldn't be created app-access : Validation errors scopes: read_all_orders error. On my partner dashboard I see an option to request access for this from shopify but my app is a private app with a custom distribution, so shouldn’t it be granted the access automatically? Can anyone please let me know how can I get this access in my app

Might be this section in the partner app dashboard.

But in the documentation it says that private apps don’t need to request access

A private app is created directly in the Shopify store admin, you’ve still an app via your Partner Dashboard which isn’t a private app. So you’ll need to ‘Request access’ to that scope like mentioned in the above screenshot.
