Research direction

Start by rerunning the linked Gmail Markup Apps Script tutorial and inspect the generated email in Gmail. Check whether the sample or the tutorial specifies prerequisites for displaying the action button, and compare the sent markup with Gmail's current requirements. Done means identifying the cause and updating the sample or documenting the required setup so the expected button appears.
