Hi anjali600,
In RedirectToAction is HTTP request you can't pass list.
So passing List from Controller to another is not possible.
You need to create another class with a string property. Then Serialize the data and set it.
In other Controller Deserialize it and return in your model.
Check the below example.
Namespaces
using Newtonsoft.Json;
Model Class
BasicInfo
public class BasicInfo
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
}
PersonData
public class PersonData
{
public string Data { get; set; }
}
Controller
Home
public class HomeController : Controller
{
// GET: Home
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Index(BasicInfo basic)
{
List<BasicInfo> infos = new List<BasicInfo>();
infos.Add(basic);
infos.Add(basic);
PersonData personData = new PersonData();
personData.Data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(infos);
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Fetch", personData);
}
}
Fetch
public class FetchController : Controller
{
// GET: Fetch
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index(PersonData personData)
{
List<BasicInfo> basicInfos = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<BasicInfo>>(personData.Data);
return View(basicInfos);
}
}
View

Layout = null;
}
