Without selecting Study and Scenario DDL, when I click on save button, I get validation message "Study is required", "Scenario is required".

Now, when I select Study item and Scenario item from dropdown, these validation messages don't disappear on dropdown selectedIndex and inside ActionMethod, I get ModelState.IsValid = false due to which I am unable to save the records even after selecting the dropdown items.

Please let me know after selecting items why validation message doesn't disappear?

ViewModel

public class MappingWellViewModel
{
    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Study is required")]
    public string StudyId { get; set; }
    public SelectList StudyList { get; set; }

    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Scenario is required")]
    public string ScenarioId { get; set; }
    public SelectList ScenarioList { get; set; }
}

Well.cshtml

Study :
<select class="form-control col-md-8" onchange="GetScenario(this.value);"
		asp-for="StudyId"
		asp-items="@Model.StudyList">
	<option value="">--Please Select--</option>
</select>
<span asp-validation-for="StudyId" class="text-danger"></span>
Scenario :
<select id="ddlScenario" class="form-control col-md-8" name="ddlScenario"
		asp-for="ScenarioId"
		asp-items="@Model.ScenarioList">
	<option value="">--Please Select--</option>
</select>
<span asp-validation-for="ScenarioId" class="text-danger"></span>
<button type="submit" class="btn dxButton float-right">Save</button>

Controller

[HttpPost]
public IActionResult Well(MappingWellViewModel mappingWellViewModel)
{
	try
	{
		if (ModelState.IsValid)
		{
			//save DDL selected values in DB
		}
		return Well();
	}
	catch(Exception ex)
	{
		throw ex;
	}
}

I am working on Asp.Net Core MVC 3.1

Thank you in advance.

Hi Richa,

Check this example. Now please take its reference and correct your code.

Model

using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering;

public class PersonModel
{
    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Name is required.")]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Country is required.")]
    public string Country { get; set; }
    public SelectList CountryList { get; set; }
}

Controller

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        PersonModel model = new PersonModel();
        model.CountryList = PopulateCountries();
        return View(model);
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Index(PersonModel person)
    {
        person.CountryList = PopulateCountries();
        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            ViewBag.Name = person.Name;
            ViewBag.CountryName = person.Country;
        }

        return View(person);
    }

    private SelectList PopulateCountries()
    {
        List<SelectListItem> countries = new List<SelectListItem>();
        countries.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Select", Value = "" });
        countries.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "USA", Value = "USA" });
        countries.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "India", Value = "India" });
        countries.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Russia", Value = "Russia" });
        countries.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "France", Value = "France" });
        SelectList items = new SelectList(countries, "Value", "Text");
        return items;
    }
}
