As per this question s answer     You will want something like this    lt bindings gt        lt basicHttpBinding gt            lt binding name  basicHttp  allowCookies  true   maxReceivedMessageSize  20000000   maxBufferSize  20000000   maxBufferPoolSize  20000000  gt                lt readerQuotas maxDepth  32   maxArrayLength  200000000   maxStringContentLength  200000000   gt            lt  binding gt        lt  basicHttpBinding gt   lt  bindings gt     Please also read comments to the accepted answer there  those contain valuable input

Updating the config didn t work for me  but I was able to edit the binding programmatically   private YourAPIClient GetClient         Uri baseAddress   new Uri APIURL        var binding   new BasicHttpBinding        binding MaxReceivedMessageSize   20000000      binding MaxBufferSize   20000000      binding MaxBufferPoolSize   20000000      binding AllowCookies   true       var readerQuotas   new XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas        readerQuotas MaxArrayLength   20000000      readerQuotas MaxStringContentLength   20000000      readerQuotas MaxDepth   32      binding ReaderQuotas   readerQuotas       if  baseAddress Scheme ToLower       https           binding Security Mode   BasicHttpSecurityMode Transport       var client   new YourAPIClient binding  new EndpointAddress baseAddress        return client

You need to make the changes in the binding configuration  in the app config file  on the SERVER and the CLIENT  or it will not take effect    lt system serviceModel gt       lt bindings gt           lt basicHttpBinding gt               lt binding maxReceivedMessageSize  2147483647   max          gt           lt  basicHttpBinding gt          lt  bindings gt   lt  system serviceModel gt

For me  the settings in web config   app config were ignored  I ended up creating my binding manually  which solved the issue for me   var httpBinding   new BasicHttpBinding         MaxBufferPoolSize   Int32 MaxValue      MaxBufferSize   Int32 MaxValue      MaxReceivedMessageSize   Int32 MaxValue      ReaderQuotas   new XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas                 MaxArrayLength   200000000          MaxDepth   32          MaxStringContentLength   200000000

This worked for me    Dim binding As New WebHttpBinding WebHttpSecurityMode Transport   binding Security Transport ClientCredentialType   HttpClientCredentialType None  binding MaxBufferSize   Integer MaxValue  binding MaxReceivedMessageSize   Integer MaxValue  binding MaxBufferPoolSize   Integer MaxValue

If you are using CustomBinding then you would rather need to make changes in httptransport element  Set it as    lt customBinding gt       lt binding     gt                 lt httpsTransport maxReceivedMessageSize  2147483647   gt       lt  binding gt    lt  customBinding gt
