This is an example of BLE GATT Client, which receives broadcast data from BLE_Server_BME280 ( a GATT server) , then transfers values up to mbed Device Connector (cloud).

Please refer details about BLEClient_mbedDevConn below. https://github.com/soramame21/BLEClient_mbedDevConn

The location of required BLE GATT server, BLE_Server_BME280, is at here. https://developer.mbed.org/users/edamame22/code/BLE_Server_BME280/
