How do I access a route parameter in my ASP.NET MVC view?

Question

I have an URL like this /home/action/id

How can I access this id in view?

Answer 1

This should work in your view:

<%= this.ViewContext.RouteData.Values["id"] %>

(assuming the route parameter is named "id")

Answer 2

you can pass it in through viewData;

In your Controller:

public ActionResult Index(string id)
{
    ViewData["Name"] = Server.UrlEncode(id);
    return View();
}

In your View:

<h1><%= ViewData["Name"] %></h1>
