In the following section, we will go through the steps that need to be modified. Other than the step numbers shown here, all other steps remain the same:


1. In Step 12, enter a name of your choice into the App Name field.


2. In Step 13, enter a description of your choice in the Description field.

3. In Step 18, in the Overwrite Domain/URL enter the link to the Assignment tool:
