What is ur data

Back end server

I think u should pass data via API. U said u have API, is there some method where u can pass data?
K
Yes I have api s

Do you have any contact in the backend team? They should have their API documented.
K
They have provided me Api s and as the first step of the project they told me to change the database sqlite to mysql

And i can't directly connect mysql database

Alright. So SQLite is a local database of any Android app. It runs on a local device.
MySQL doesn't exist on Android. It is a remote database. You need to use a provided API to interact with this DB.
On Android, you can use Retrofit to leverage the usage of a Rest API.

That's correct. You can't.
K
I think, u will explain them. Why u cant use mysql as local base.
K
How to do that with the use of retrofit.. Can i change it to mysql or not? I mean it is possible or not
K
Yeah I will do that.
K
Retrofit can do only HTTP requests.

When you use Retrofit, then you use the API urls. You send request and receive responses with some data from the db server.
