donwload parse SDK for android and follow instruction given on below mentioned link: https://parse.com/apps/quickstart#parse_data/mobile/android/native/existing

Add the SDK to your app in Android Studio Add the following to your build.gradle

dependencies {
    compile 'com.parse.bolts:bolts-android:1.+'
    compile 'com.parse:parse-android:1.+'
}

and then

Add the following to your Application#onCreate():

Parse.initialize(new Parse.Configuration.Builder(myContext)
    .applicationId("YOUR_APP_ID")
    .server("http://YOUR_PARSE_SERVER:1337/parse")

    ...

    .build()
);

Your app must request the INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permissions, if it isn't doing so already. Add the following lines inside the tag in your AndroidManifest.xml:

Compile and run!

After installing the SDK, copy and paste this code into your app, for example in your Activity#onCreate():

ParseObject testObject = new ParseObject("TestObject");
testObject.put("foo", "bar");
testObject.saveInBackground();

You will also have to add an import statement at the top of your file:

import com.parse.ParseObject;

Run your app. A new object of class TestObject will be sent to the Parse Server and saved.
