You will need to return your model. You can keep your view and extract via javascript the model from the view, or you can have a JsonResult and return only the serialized string.

From javascript side, trigger this from a button or the event of your wish.

var params = ["data","data", "data"];

$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: /ProcessLogEntries,
  data: params,
  success: function(data, statusRespoonse, xhr){
   //extract your model from data or return your model via jsonresult by changing the Controller's return type.

    yourModel = data;
   },
  dataType: "json"
});
