Hi, It's not a WebAPI service.its a WCF service. You must add a service reference to your project, then you can create a instance for that service object then you can able to access your services. Refere this for more info: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332338.aspx

In this tutorial is explained how to consume a web api with C#, in this example a console application is used, but you can also use another web api to consume of course. http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/web-api-clients/calling-a-web-api-from-a-net-client You should have a look at the HttpClient HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost/yourwebapi"); Make sure your requests ask for the response in JSON using the Accept header like this: client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add( new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json")); Now comes the part that differs from the tutorial, make sure you have the same objects as the other WEB API , if not, then you have to map the objects to your own objects. ASP.NET will convert the JSON you receive to the object you want it to be. HttpResponseMessage response = client .GetAsync("api/yourcustomobjects").Result; if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode) { var yourcustomobjects = response .Content.ReadAsAsync IEnumerable YourCustomObject > > ().Result; foreach (var x in yourcustomobjects) { //Call your store method and pass in your own object SaveCustomObjectToDB(x); } } else { //Something has gone wrong, handle it here } please note that I use .Result for the case of the example. You should consider using the async await pattern here.
