API - Insufficient scope. The request requires higher privileges than provided by the access token.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I'm trying to make an integration with our PSA to create tickets and have a bi-directional sync with the Elements API.
I've come to a point where I want to add a comment to an Incident using the incidents/v1/comments endpoint but I'm getting a 403 error with the message Insufficient Scope.

My API key I'm using has "Full editing" permissions on the top level Organization of our tenant.

Am I doing something wrong or is posting comments/changing status through the API not allowed?

Error I'm getting:

{  "message": "Insufficient scope. The request requires higher privileges than provided by the access token.",  "code": 403001,  "transactionId": "0000-4fdc3315a73e4f90"}
