How do I properly pass command line arguments to a C program in CLion?

I need someone to outline how to pass command line arguments to CLion. What I've found so far hasn't worked for me. Specifically I need to know how to pass multiple arguments to the program from the command line.

If you click on Run-Edit Configurations you can create an "Application" configuration that allows you to provide the Program arguments - either in a single line, or in a separate window one argument per line.

I landed on this SO page as I was using CLion with Rust.

For Rust I was able to add the command line arguments to the end of the Run\Edit Configurations\Command. Notice the required --.

I got this tip from Jetbrains.

For C, it was Run\Edit Configurations\Program Arguments, as @Zulan said.
