# Perform Bluetooth OPP server functions

You can verify Bluetooth OPP server functionality using the commands provided in the main menu of `obexctl`. Bluetooth OPP server functions allow you to receive a file in the server role.

## Receive a file in the server role

To receive a file in the server role, do the following:

1. Pair the DUT and the remote device. For instructions, see [Pair with a remote Bluetooth device](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70030-13/topic/bluez-perform-bluetooth-gap-functions.html#section-h4c-1bs-lcc-08-21-24-1205-46-507).
2. Initiate a connection from the remote device to the DUT.
3. Send any file from the remote device to the DUT through Bluetooth sharing.

    The transfer prints appear in the `obexctl` screen of the DUT. After the file transfer to the DUT, the file is stored at `/var/bluetooth`.
