I was having the exact same problem with Unreal until literally five minutes ago! I was actually replying to your post to commiserate our shared plight, when I thought to try one more thing. The problem turned out for me to be that I had a Data Use Checkup in draft and had never submitted it for review. Once I did submit it, it was accepted very quickly, and suddenly I could get the User IDs for my developer profile and my Test Users.
Specifically, I was trying to get the SharedAnchorsSample working. I had modified the sample to use the Platform SDK Plugin v65.0 (https://developer.oculus.com/downloads/package/unreal-5-platform-sdk-plugin/) and set it up according to these directions (https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unreal/ps-setup/). I replaced the sample's method of retrieving the ID with the plugin's PlatformGetLoggedInUserID function.
I can provide further details if needed.
