   tip

   You may encounter a warning page saying Google hasn't verified this app, click on Advanced and then Go to... (unsafe).

   This warning is because the app is not verified by Google. This is normal for self-hosted apps.

   6. You should be shown another success message. Then, make sure you're on the Viren070 tab and you should see a block of code. Copy this code.

   7. Go back to the Cloudflare Worker editor and after removing the existing code, paste the code you copied.

   8. Your code should look something like this:

      

9. Click Deploy in the top right to save your changes and deploy the worker.

10. Once deployed, you should see a green success message at the bottom. Click Visit next to the deploy button to go to the addon URL.
