I want to use 2 android devices, 1 as a server and 2 as a client. And this process should be through the local network, so the 1st device will have to open a hotspot and the 2nd device will have to connect to it. I did the same process but connect from 2 devices to the server It doesn't work. I don't understand what I should do in this case. I mean, which thread should I connect to?

val client = HttpClient(Android) {
    install(Logging)
}

object KtorClient {
    var ipAddress: String = ""
    var ipv4Address = ""

    fun getData() {
        GlobalScope.launch {
            val data = client.request("http://$ipAddress:8080/api/data")
            println("DATA:${data.call.body<String>()}")
        }
    }

    fun otherGetData() {
        GlobalScope.launch {
            val data = client.request("https://$ipv4Address:8080/api/data")
            println("DATA:${data.call.body<String>()}")
        }
    }
}

How do you share the network between two Android devices?

Hi @Aleksei Tirman [JB],
One device serves as server, and other (as client) sends request.

server turns on hotSpot
and
client turns on wify

I cannot make connection between 2 devices.
