Cinemachine Freelook Camera Movement with Joystick

Question

I'm trying to make a third person RPG that's controlled with a gamepad. I am using the Cinemachine Freelook camera and Unity's Input System. So far the gamepad works just fine in making my player character move and perform actions; however, I want to control the camera's rotation with the right joystick. Only the mouse can control it's movement right now, and I don't want the mouse to control it at all. If anyone knows a script or a setting change that will get me these results, please let me know.

Figured it out, it was actually a pretty simple fix. Go to Edit > Project Settings > Input Manager and change the Type and Axis (Under Mouse X and Mouse Y) and change them to your desired inputs. You will probably also have to change the Dead setting, or else your camera will drift without you moving the joystick. I found a Dead value of 0.01 works best. If anyone has any questions about this, let me know.

for clarity, you need to use joystick axis 4 and 5 for right stick inputs

if you want both controller and joystick support I wouldn't change the existing Mouse X and Mouse Y.

I would put two more axes in, with the duplicate names Mouse X and Mouse Y, but with joystick 4 and 5. this way both will be used

Go to Edit > Project Settings > Input Manager and change the Type and Axis (Under Mouse X and Mouse Y) and set them to 4th axis and 5th axis this will override mouse with controller input. see this image https://i.imgur.com/HzAtGfs.png

sorry man I misunderstood the question here I thought this was about mobile joystick and not like the actual controller I wanted to control the free look on mobile because when i move my player movement joystick the camera also moves.
