How to get LinkedIn r_fullprofile access on Linkedin API?

I need to get the vanityName for my application, but I'm getting non-autorized access with the r_basicprofile. The first and last name is working well.

I found some content about how to get the r_fullprofile access on Linkedin API on the own LinkedIn site, like the text below:

To access any of the following full profile fields, your app must request the r_fullprofile member permission source: https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/fields/full-profile

Nevertheless, I can't find where and how to ask for this permission. I read in another post that LinkedIn has stopped taking new partner requests. But, I really don't know what is the correct information and how can I get the vanityName. Can someone help me?

LinkedIn's answer on that page is very ambiguous. I think this is by design. They are protecting API access to r_fullprofile because of their own business interests, I would imagine.

I'd be surprised if someone doesn't sue them over this. It's supposed to be public information and is on the public internet.
