Climbing Stairs

Good Morning,
I am new and just started this journey this week. As a way to help burn calories I am taking little breaks from my desk and walking a flight of stairs a few times a day. I was trying to log this as exercise as it does get my heart rate up (yes I am that out of shape). However, when trying to a Climbing Stairs as an exercise all I could fin is jogging stairs and it wanted to know how many minutes. I was not really jogging (wish I could), and it only took a few minutes so I don't feel like using the jogging stairs description is accurate.
Anyway know a way to calculate stair climbing by the number of step or flights?
Thanks,
Tammy
