Social media accounts not showing on Google Knowledge panel

    On recent update from Yoast, there was the functionality that gave Google the information to show our social media accounts below a large description of our organisation on the top right of the first page on Google (Knowledge panel).

    My problem is that, even though I have completed all of my social media profiles on the SEO/Social section on the Yoast plugin sections, Google does not show my social media icons in their Knowledge panel.

    Any ideas what I need to do to fix this? should I add the following in my <head>:

    <script type="application/ld+json">
{ "@context" : "http://schema.org",
  "@type" : "Organization",
  "name" : "Your Organization Name",
  "url" : "http://www.your-site.com",
  "sameAs" : [ "http://www.facebook.com/your-profile",
    "http://www.twitter.com/yourProfile",
    "http://plus.google.com/your_profile"]
}
</script>

    I thought Yoast SEO did this automatically, but I cannot find where this is coded.

    Anyone help here?
