I’m trying to create a simple WCF Client (C#) for a web service hosted on our intranet. Using Fiddler and SoapUI I can see the request and response seems OK, but when I run the code an empty array is returned.
I’ll try to paste only the relevant lines (and yet will be a LOT of stuff), but feel free to ask if I missed something:

Even if the response contains one basicWorkforce element, the result variable is an empty array of basicWorkforce.
Sorry about the long post and thanks in advance for the help.
Finally did it!
For anyone facing the same problem, it lies on the namespaces. In this case, on the array returned by
getByKeyResponse.So, I just replaced this:
with this:
