How to make a Redirect to the controller method from the RazorPageModel?

Question

Hi!

The question is simple, but I'm stuck on it.

I have a RazorPageModel in Identity\Pages\RazorPageModel.cshtml.cs in which this happens:

public async Task<IActionResult> OnPostAsync()         {

	...

	return RedirectToPage("~/ControllerName/ControllerMethodName", new { info = n });

	or

	return Redirect("~/ControllerName/ControllerMethodName?info=" + n);
}

There is no way I can get into the Controller Method Name method and pass the data there.

I tried it in different ways, HTTP ERROR 404 crashes.

How to make a Redirect to the controller method from the RazorPageModel?

Thanks!

Hi @Volk Volk,

Here is a whole working demo you could follow:

1.Test.cshtml.cs in Areas\Identity\Pages

public class TestModel : PageModel
{
    public async Task<IActionResult> OnGet()
    {
        return RedirectToAction("Index","Sales", new { area = "Customer",info = 1234 }); ;           
    }
}

2.Index.cshtml in Areas\Customer\Views\Sales and SalesController in Areas\Customer\Controllers

 [Area("Customer")]
 public class SalesController : Controller
 {
     public IActionResult Index(int info)
     {
         return View();
     }
 }

3.Program.cs:

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Add services to the container...
builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();
builder.Services.AddRazorPages();


var app = builder.Build();

//other middleware....
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseAuthorization();

app.MapControllerRoute(
    name: "MyArea",
    pattern: "{area:exists}/{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
app.MapRazorPages();

app.Run();

I assume you are trying to call an MVC controller Form a Razor Page. First, MVC must be configured.

builder.Services.AddMvc();

//

app.MapControllerRoute(
    name: "default",
    pattern: "{controller}/{action}/{id?}");

Then redirecting is simply.

public IActionResult OnGet()
{
    return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}

MVC configuration is covered in the documentation.
