Redirecting View by Id

Question

I have 2 tables tbl_client and tbl_branch linked with the client_id. I have created a ClientController and a BranchController.

Now I need to control the branch under client view. I have and ActionLink

@Html.ActionLink("Branch Management", "Index", "Branch", new {id = item.client_id},null)

This will redirect to Index view in branch controller, where the list of branches according to client id is filtered and return the view.

Now I have a create link in this view and I need to redirect it to the Create Page which will Create the Branch Under the Client currently active.

Please Mention the problem you are getting in this with some more information. — Rahul, Mar 12 '14 at 04:16
I think you want to pass Client_id in Branch created page with actionlink..? — sanjay bhansali, Mar 12 '14 at 04:21

just put the client_id in a viewbag from your Branch-> Index actionresult.

Public ActionResult Index(string id){
  ViewBag.ClientId=id;
}

now goto its view; Index.cshtml and say,

@Html.ActionLink("New Client", "Create", "Client", new {id = ViewBag.ClientId});

I have used ViewBag as you suggested but I cannot redirect back to the same page after I go to Create Page .The ViewBag gets null value when I go back to the listing page – user3405577 Mar 14 '14 at 04:31

Just Make a Link into View as:

@Html.ActionLink("Branch Create", "Create", "Branch", new {id = item.client_id})

and on Server side (i.e. In Controller) use action as:

    //GET 
    public ActionResult Create(long Client_ID)
    {
        var NewBranch=new BranchViewModel{Client_ID=Client_ID};
        return View(NewBranch);
    }

    //POST
    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Create(BranchViewModel Branch)
    {
        //Code to Create New Entry
    }

Maybe this can help you.

It doesnot take id = item.client_id in the ActionLink .. I have managed to use Model instead of client .. I have tried ViewBag too but no good — user3405577, Mar 14 '14 at 04:29
