8.Go to console tab in Chrome Tools, you must type makeInviteCode() and press ENTER , then you will obtain a 200 Success status and data as shown below.

9.Now press the arrow alongside the data and you will see the encoding type to be Base64 or ROT13.

15.We are about to finish , but not yet. We must go to Base64 again and we need to code a code.‘

16. Paste the code you got as the response of the POST request into the textbox and finally you get your invite code.
