Assigned scope permission is not recognized in Slack API request

I am facing the same issue as this question

Slack API Opening a New DM (Scopes and Permissions)

I have these permissions assigned enter image description here

   ok error         needed   provided
   -- -----         ------   --------
 False missing_scope im:write identify,channels:read,users:read

The self-answer in the other question implies that I need to use the bot token, instead. I don't think I have a bot token (and am not the application administrator so I can't get in), but it seems like I should be able to submit this with the user token as well.

When scopes are added a Slack app has to be re-installed into the workspace (using the OAuth 2.0 process) to activate those changes.
