If you haven’t flashed an ESP32 project before, you need the port name of ESP32 for the config file. If using unix system, to get the port name of a USB device run:
ls /dev

Find your device on the list and copy it. It should look something like: /dev/cu.usbserial-DO01EXOV or /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART
-
cd into project folder and run:
make menuconfig
-
Paste your port name into Serial Flasher Config -> Default Serial Port
