# Collibra Connect Hello World
{% hint style="warning" %}
Collibra Connect is End of Life and therefore no longer supported. This documentation is no longer maintained and is likely out of date, but it remains available for reference purposes.
{% endhint %}
In this tutorial, you create a basic Mule application to display Hello World! in a browser window.
### Prerequisites
* You have [installed](/tutorials/getting-started-with-collibra-connect.md#installation) MuleSoft Anypoint Studio.
### Create a MuleSoft project
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Click **File** → **New** → **Mule Project**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Enter a name for your project and click **Next**. We are using *Hello\_World* in this example.
{% hint style="info" %}
Blank spaces are not supported as part of the project name.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Leave all the default values and click **Next**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click **Finish**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
:chevrons-right: The project is created. The **Package Explorer**, **Palette** and **Connections Explorer** are populated.
### Create the connect flow
In this section you create connect flow by adding the required building blocks to the canvas and connecting them.
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
From the **Palette**, drag the **HTTP** connector to the **Canvas**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
In the **Console** area, click the green **+** under **General Settings** to create a new connector configuration:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Enter a value for the **Base Path** field. We are using */start* in this example.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Leave all other default values and click **OK**.
{% hint style="info" %}
The **Base Path** is the home page of your application.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
From the **Palette**, select **Transformers** and scroll down to find the **Set Payload** transformer.
{% hint style="success" %}
You can also use the search function to look for specific building blocks.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Drag the **Set Payload** transformer from the **Palette** to the **Canvas**, next to the **HTTP Connector**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
In the **Value** field, enter `#['Hello World!']`.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
#### Add a Logger component
Anypoint Studio automatically logs all error, warning, tracing, and debugging information in a **log4j2.xml** file.
To manage logging you can also add a logger component to your application:
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
From the **Palette**, select **Components** and scroll down to **Logger** or use the search function.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Drag the **Logger** component from the **Palette** to the **Canvas**, next to the **Set Payload** transformer.
{% hint style="info" %}
Note: Ensure all building blocks are in the same **Flow** box on the **Canvas**.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
In the **Message** field, enter `#[payload]`.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
Save your project.
### Run the application
To start the application in your development environment, right-click the XML file in the **Package Explorer** and select **Run As** → **Mule Application**.
:chevrons-right: If there are no errors, the console will show that the application has started.
To run the application, open a browser window and go to ** to see 'Hello World!' printed on the page. If you used another value for the base path, replace */start* with your own path.
:chevrons-right: Since the logger component was instructed to deliver the payload message, the console will reflect this activity.
