# Send data in WIFI to collect server

Asked by Tobias on 2018-02-28

Hello, 
I have several devices that collect data on openforis. I saw that in the mobile app it is possible to send the data directly to Openforis Collect. 
Unfortunately I could not find the description on how to set this up. Do you have a protocol on how to install it and set it up ? Do I need to create a PostGreSQL Database, or what are the perquisites? 


Kind regards,


Tobias

Dear Tobias,  
That feature is still experimental. Once it will be finalized we will update even the documentation in our website.  
Meanwhile please consider that in order to use it you will have to setup Collect Desktop in a publicly accessible server and then you will have to configure Collect Mobile to send data to that installation of Collect.  
Many thanks,
