5. Enter the code and click Register.
6. You will be prompted to enter the security password, the same password you created when you installed webCoRE.

Github Installation Troubleshooting

If you receive this error it may be because you installed and published both "webCore.groovy" and other SmartApps at the same time. Please do them in order per the instructions. Be sure to install/publish "webCore.groovy" first then the others after (See steps 11-16). You can do the other SmartApps at the same time after "webCore.groovy" has been installed and published.
