Alternative to `Mouse.Move` event for UserInputService

Is there any sort of alternative to the Mouse.Move event, but using UserInputService instead? I’m making a placement system and this is for the preview before the structure gets placed. If I can’t do this with an event then I’ll probably just do something with RunService.RenderStepped and GetMouseLocation(). I did check the api reference, but I couldn’t find anything so I’m just checking. Thanks!

The first example for InputObject | Roblox Creator Documentation shows how you can get the input.Position and see whether the mouse has been moved.

userInputService.InputChanged:Connect(function(input, gameprocessed)
  if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseMovement then
    print(input.Position)
  end
end)

Wow, I literally looked right above that and didn’t see it. Sorry for the trouble.
