How to show success message in view when RedirectToAction used

Question

I am working on MVC3 project and I want to show a message when I use RedirectToAction in view. I have used ViewBag but it is not working.

Please anybody help me.

Answer 1

you can use TempData to show the message

in your View

@if (TempData["Success"] != null)
{
 
@TempData["Success"]
}

and in your controller after success

TempData["Success"] = "Added Successfully!";
return RedirectToAction("actionname", "controllername");
