Changes cannot be sent for review automatically from API

[kitallis]

This error from Play Store while using the API:

Edit could not be committed due to an error. Changes cannot be sent for review automatically. Please set the query parameter changesNotSentForReview to true. Once committed, the changes in this edit can be sent for review from the Google Play Console UI.

It most likely means that your previous submission was rejected. The way to correct it is in two ways:

• Republish with changesNotSentForReview set. This will not send the submission for review
• Manually upload to any public track, like open testing or closed

Just uploading to a public track doesn't work, it needs to be manually submitted for review as well.

If you try to set changesNotSentForReview parameter for an edit that did not need that (i.e. the last build review has not failed), it will fail to commit that edit with an error.

Changes are sent for review automatically. The query parameter changesNotSentForReview must not be set.
