I like to think of a project charter in terms of this article from PMI - https://www.pmi.org/learning/library/charter-selling-project-7473

Formal project charters have not been required at the company's where I've worked. We've had proposals and other documents that contain all of the information you'd expect from a charter, but if I attempted to enforce formal charter documents where I currently work, for example, it wouldn't go anywhere. That said, I am aware of situations at other companies where they are required.

The first step in creating a project charter, even before defining the project's objectives or scope, is to thoroughly evaluate the needs of the customer and key stakeholders. This involves understanding their expectations, priorities, and any constraints they may have. By actively listening to their input and incorporating it into the project charter, you ensure that the project's goals and deliverables align with their needs and expectations. This collaborative approach fosters buy-in and support from stakeholders, increasing the likelihood of project success.

It is a very open question but I fully recommend to go to business analysis related documentation. Search into the practical guide the "collaboration" paragraphs inside it. After that, go to Infinity tool and prompt it.
