How to access a remote database through a mobile application?

Question

Android

Good day to all.
I mainly developed only desktop applications, but right now I needed to make a mobile application. Newbie in this business. Everything would be fine, but here is the problem: how to remotely connect a mobile application to the database.
-I develop on XAMARIN
-DB is implemented in MSSQL
-I'm currently developing under ANDROID
What you need: articles, videos and other useful resources.
I will be glad to useful advice and, if possible, constructive criticism.
Thanks in advance.

Mobile applications usually do not access a remote DBMS directly, but rather a remote HTTP API server (ASP.Net Core) connected to the DBMS.
They usually work with DBMS through Entity Framework or ADO.NET.
