Keep in mind ASMX is very old. If you are building a new project then consider implementing Web API.

2021-07-29T14:23:11.93+00:00 Are you asking how to add a project reference in Visual Studio??? Keep in mind, that the community cannot see your BLL project so we have no idea how it works.
Yea I learned the ASMX 2.5 years ago.
ASMX has been around since the early 2000s. Even 2.5 years ago ASMX was outdated...
How is it done today ? is WebMethod obsolete ?
As stated above, today we use RESTful services; Web API. The latest framework is ASP.NET Core.

2021-07-29T14:57:27.03+00:00 I rather read about the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/tutorials/first-web-api?view=aspnetcore-5.0&tabs=visual-studio
Because I don't need the HTML code.
Do you know how to implement it with my business logic layer project ?
Can you help with this ?

Web API allows you to run any logic you like in response to an HTTP request. It is important to understand, the community cannot see your business logic and we have no idea how your business logic layer works or even the targeted framework.
The standard steps for including a library are; create a reference to the library, instantiate the library, then call the business methods.
Again, I think going through a few getting started tutorials and learning Web API fundamentals is the key to moving forward.
