Has anyone used Google Assistant App Actions Custom Intent?

For Internal Testing, do App Actions need approval, and does a production build with App Actions need to be published to trigger a review? Or is joining the App Actions Development Program Google Group enough?

I joined the group, but only GET_THING (built-in intent) works—custom actions don’t. Tested via Google Assistant Plugin, created a preview, and verified with voice commands—it worked fine.
