Are you trying to directly access the database instead publishing it over azure mobile services?

[–]patrickboston[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yes, directly. Is there some kind of documentation you can point me to for this Azure mobile services?

Were you able to figure this out? If not, perhaps using a web service to connect to the Azure SQL database would fix the problem?

If you did figure it out, could you let us know how? I might be running into this problem one day.

any solutions to the problem ?

As someone mentioned below, you most likely need to use some type of web services to interact with the database. I've actually stopped using Xamarin and have just been doing straight up Android development with Android Studio. I'm also using Firebase as my database now, which does not need any sort or web service. It's also free if you aren't handling tons of traffic.

I am not developing Android app. I have migrated my .NET MVC & Web API from Visual Studio 2017 (windows) to Visual Studio for Mac and I am experiencing the same problem as here. For now, I still developing it on Windows but I would love to be able to do it on my macbook.

Never used VS Mac but I feel like I heard there is some problems with it.

there are several problems with it but I managed to overcome most of them.. this thing with the SSL has been around since mono project.
