Candy Machine - Unable to upload files

Question

I am following a tutorial and am on the step where we are uplaoding the metadata and files. The tutorial tells me to use the the following command:

npx ts-node js/packages/cli/src/candy-machine-v2-cli.ts upload ./assets --env devnet --keypair \<PATH\>

When I run this command with my path, it says :

error: required option '-cp, --config-path <string>' not specified

When I type what I think is the config path, it says the keypair does not exist.

I am quite confused how to pass this step, could someone please help me?

Thanks

I am not quite sure what to do.

Your config.json file have to be something like this. If you go through the metaplex documentation, they guide you through all the steps you have to follow from the beginning.
