You are currently looking at the City-State Details screen -- which is to say, at a specific city state. You need to look at the City-States Overview tab instead, found by pressing the button circled in this picture:enter image description here

From this tab, available Envoys will be placeable by pressing the + / - buttons next to their name under the "Envoys" heading. (Actual buttons are not drawn in MS Paint)

    Kind of ridiculous as someone who has a computer science degree and someone who is quite knowledgeable in UI/UX principles that it took me this long to figure this out. Thanks.

  • This took me forever to figure out on a Nintendo Switch: you have to press the left and right arrows on the D-Pad to assign Envoys to a city-state. I had eight Envoys before I figured it out...
