How to use UWP's WebAccountManager and AccountSettingsPane for an Xbox app?

I built an app that runs on Xbox and PCs. I successfully added WebAccountManager and AccountSettingsPane to the app following these instructions: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/security/web-account-manager. It works great on my Surface. However, after testing on Xbox, the AccountSettingsPane does not pop up. Does anyone know if Xbox doesn't support this UWP API?

Here is my code for opening the AccountSettingsPane. It works on PCs and tablets, but not Xbox. enter image description here

Any ideas?
