When I go to setup G Suite Create New Google Apps Input for the Activity - Admin I get an a flag saying that I need to configure the Extra Config must be valid for JSON. Which in the instructions is says "These inputs generally do not require Extra Configuration options in the Modular Input." for the report of admin.

Need help fixing this issue.

Yeah I worded that a little weird. It means you don’t need options configured but still need an empty Json object. Just put “{}” in the extra config and you’ll be good to go.
