No INPUTS.json in puppeteer js template

Hi I'm working through the academy course here: https://docs.apify.com/academy/web-scraping-for-beginners/challenge/initializing-and-setting-up Unfortunately, there is no INPUTS.json file that gets generated when I pick the puppeteer JS template when I pick it according to the instructions. I tried to add it manually and import it but it didn't work (probably didn't use the export keyword very well). Is this file supposed to be generated automatically or manually created? If it's the latter, any suggestions on how I can do that will be appreciated.

Hello, if the file didn't get automatically generated, you can create one manually at path <your_actor_folder>/storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json.
