I have looked through historical conversations in GAM for Google Workspace group and followed advises in the historical conversations, but I still cannot get user2 to show.

I used the following command to make myself as delegate of user2
c:\gam> gam user user2 delegate to MYEMAIL
Giving MYEMAIL delegate access to user2@MYDOMAIN (1/1)

I made sure the status is accepted:
c:\gam> gam user user2 show delegate
Getting delegates for user2@MYDOMAIN (1/1)
Delegator: user2@MYDOMAIN
 Status: accepted
 Delegate Email: MYEMAIL

When I log in to Gmail with my account, I am not able to see user2 under my profile picture at top right corner.
I have tried to log out, clear browser cache, close browser and log back in.
User2 still does not appear under my profile picture.

What have I missed?
What can I do to resolve this issue?
What can I do to troubleshoot further?

Thanks in advance.

The delegate users appear under my account after around 24 hours.
Subsequent delegation appeared instantly.
If I setup another delegation for another user.
That user needs to wait a few hours.
It seems that the first time delegation for a user takes hours but subsequent ones will be instant.
