Issues to apply personalized json for "approve/reject" columns - SP List

Hi everyone.

I'm new to SP and .json synthax, so I'm facing some issues to apply this list formatting to my list:

[https://github.com/pnp/List-Formatting/blob/master/column-samples/approval-buttons-setValue-status-user/README.md

I created the approval column as caculated and pasted the .json file, but as it is a calculated column, which formula should I use? This are the instructions from the example:
User's image

I'm stucked in this very first step, since I don't know the right way to create this column.

Thanks!
