AAPT: error: attribute type (aka com.example.androidtrivia:type) not found

I am using Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 Patch 1 of August 7, 2021.

As per the following note in https://developer.android.com/codelabs/kotlin-android-training-start-external-activity?index=..%2F..android-kotlin-fundamentals#3

Note: If you're using Android Studio 3.2 or lower, you might have to change app:type = "integer" to app:argType = "integer" in the navigation.xml file

and assuming that I am using AS higher than 3.2, I changed the app:argType="integer" to app:type="integer" in the navigation argument type.

Now the following error occurs:

AAPT: error: attribute type (aka com.example.androidtrivia:type) not found.

If I keep app:argType the project compiles and runs correctly.

Is app:type not correct to use?
