Graph API Returns 401 for Viva Engage Community endpoints using Application Permission

I am attempting to request to create a new Viva Engage Community to the Create Community Microsoft Graph Beta API Endpoint (/employeeExperience/communities) using the appropriate Application Permission (Community.ReadWrite.All).

Response is a 401 unauthorized. The same call was working as of Sep. 9th 2024, but has not been working since.

A call to create using delegated permissions still works as expected.

Has there been a recent change to this endpoint for use with Application Permissions?
