Is it possible to consume a WCF Service from a Desktop Add-In? I Can't seem to get it to work. I keep coming up with the attached error.

I would definitely think that this is possible.

There are multiple ways to configure WCF. One way is to do so using a config file which appears to be what you have done. When you do that I think that it has to be application config file, i.e. ArcMap. It might be better to investigate doing this programmatically.

I got it all worked out. I changed the REST endpoint binding from custombinding to basichttpbinding and coded all of the parameters as opposed to using a config file (as you suggest) and it worked. Thanks for the input.
