Question

Hi Tus, For windows phone connection it will be done via System.Data.SqlClient assembly. Check this MSDN library link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/system.data.sqlclient For Android and iOS, web services and nugets provide the solution. https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.Data.SqlClient/ Hope this helps. Regards, Amresh S.

Hi Tus, Please go through the below link to configure your sql server via the service. I guess, your requirement is to add the data from the user's input via you app to the database's table. Isn't it? If so, this blog can get some idea. http://www.aspsnippets.com/Articles/Insert-data-into-database-using-Web-Service-in-ASPNet-using-C-and-VBNet.aspx HTH. Regards, Amresh S.

Hi Tus, Yes, but what kind of issue you are facing in making a connectivity between the server and the native apps. So, that'll try in the same scenario. Regards, Amresh S.
