Link to the challenge:

To prevent a user from submitting your form when required information is missing, you need to add the required attribute to an input element. There’s no need to set a value to the required attribute. Instead, just add the word required to the input element, making sure there is space between it and other attributes.

just add the word required to the input element.
(inside the element just like any other attribute)
Do not use double quotes around it.

I tried it with, without, with nothing on the end, with the closing input on the end I can’t get anything to work

you are over-thinking this.
Click the Restart Step button to get everything back to the starting point.
Then just type the word required -inside- the input element.
(inside, not outside)
