How to edit the /etc/jitsi/jibri/jibri.conf for jitsi recording on jibri since /etc/jitsi/jibri/config.json doesn't exist anymore

Question

I’am working on a self-hosting jitsi on a ec2 aws instance, the installation is successfully completed, now i want to record , when configuring jibri i noticed that /etc/jitsi/jibri/config.json is missing, researched a little more on the documentation and found that jibri made some changes and the file to edit is now /etc/jitsi/jibri/jibri.conf , but for my case jibri.conf is empty , tried to copy/paste some code found in here https://docs.easyjitsi.com/docs/confignewjibri/ , but it sill fails to record. So the question is , is there a reason my jibri.conf is empthy or it is supposed to be that way and how to edit it so jitsi find it ? Thank you in advance
