I had xdrip running just fine on my phone and configured it to collect on the heroku site. I called Dexcom and they made me uninstall xdrip and reinstall dexcom for troubleshooting.

the problem is I do not remember where to go again in xdrip and what to put where to get it uploading again.

I have all my usernames passwords etc and my url is [https://bradsxdrip.herokuapp.com/](https://bradsxdrip.herokuapp.com/) . I just can’t remember settings in xdrip.

@bpollina -

Goto **Settings -\> Cloud Upload -\>**

There are two options:

1. MongoDB - THis uploads to a Mongo Labs Database directly (It is what I use)
2. **Nighscout Sync (REST-API)** This is the one you use to sent to nightscout directly. I suspect this is the one you probably want.

All the settings are there including the place to put your heroku site name.

Finally found it at [http://www.nightscout.info/wiki/welcome/set-up-nightscout-using-heroku](http://www.nightscout.info/wiki/welcome/set-up-nightscout-using-heroku)

[https://YOURSECRET1234@YOURSITENAME.herokuapp.com/api/v1](https://YOURSECRET1234@YOURSITENAME.herokuapp.com/api/v1)

once I did that, it worked like a charm!
