3	Click Add Activation Code(s). GMS validates the codes with the backend server and then adds them to the GMS license pool database if they are valid. The Console > Logs screen provides more information on success/failure of individual activation codes.

After the operation is completed, the Console > Logs screen has more detailed information on the success/failure of individual activation codes that were provided in the file.
