can't use hidden field to pass role and file no from action result index resignation to Pending Managers action ?

Question

I work on asp.net mvc . i face issue when pass user role and User code

from IndexResignation action to PendingManagersRequests action using

session because it share values between browsers .

so How to use another way instead of session as hidden field .

public ActionResult IndexResignation(string filenumber)
 {
     int employeeFileNo;
     string userRole;



     if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(filenumber))
     {

         if (int.TryParse(filenumber, out employeeFileNo))
         {
             JDEUtility jde = new JDEUtility();
             userRole = Workforce.ResignationGetUserRole(employeeFileNo);


                 Session[SessionKeys.UserCode] = employeeFileNo;
             if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(userRole))
             {

                 Session[SessionKeys.RoleCode] = userRole;
             }

             if (userRole == RoleKey.LM || userRole == RoleKey.DM || userRole == RoleKey.LDM)
             {

                 return RedirectToAction("PendingManagersRequests", "Resignation", null);
             }



         }
         else
         {
             ViewBag.errorMsg = "incorrect file no";
         }
     }
     else
     {
         ViewBag.errorMsg = "unauthorized user";
     }

     return View();
 }

     public async Task<ActionResult> PendingManagersRequests(string msg, string errorMsg)
     {
        // how to pass user role and user code to action PendingManager
     }
ASP.NET (C#)

PendingMangerRequest action have view

If I understand correctly, you are asking how to pass data from the IndexResignation action to the PendingManagersRequests() action without using Session. Use the RedirectToAction() method and add the parameters you wish to pass. You'll need update the PendingManagersRequests to include the two new parameters.

 public async Task<ActionResult> PendingManagersRequests(string msg, string errorMsg, string userRole, string userCode)
 {
    // how to pass user role and user code to action PendingManager
 }

The RedirectToAction() syntax.

return RedirectToAction("PendingManagersRequests", "Resignation", 
    new { 
        msg = "", 
        errorMsg = "", 
        userRole = userRole, 
        userCode = employeeFileNo
    });
