file_requests.create isn't appearing as an option in app permissions
Apologies if I'm missing something very obvious (and I likely am). I'd like to grant `file_requests.create` permissions to an app I'm implementing, but ... it's not on the permissions screen. I'm on...

Hi jimmyb,
The endpoint /2/file_requests/create requires scope `file_requests.write`. As long as your app has that scope enabled, you should be able to send requests to this endpoint without any issues.
If you are seeing any errors or unexpected behavior with this scope enabled, please reply with:
- the name and version number of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any
- the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s), but don't include any access or refresh token(s)
- the full text of any error or unexpected output

That was exactly the information I needed. I'm able to create a file request via an API call, now. Thank you!
