According to this
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/crmdevelopment/thread/27085665-9e82-4e97-9ae2-13683cddb45e it seems it is not possible to create a plugin that can successfully consume/call a WCF service...because CRM Online can only host a plugin
in isolation. While I've seen some examples that show it is possible, none of them mention whether they are online or on-premise.
So? Has anyone done so successfully?
If not, can anyone provide a good resource for creating/calling a non-WCF web service from a CRM Online plugin?
Optional Background Reading: I am struggling to connect directly to Exchange server from a CRM Online plugin. So, I'm wondering if building an intermediary web service will be a work around. Instead of going CRM --> Exchange, I can try to go CRM -->
WCF Service --> Exchange?
Thanks for any insight.
