Question

I have this link calling a action called UserSettingsTabsStructure:

@Ajax.ActionLink(User.Identity.Name,"UserSettingsTabsStructure","Account",   new AjaxOptions() { HttpMethod = "Get", UpdateTargetId = "conteudoDinamico", OnComplete = "loadDialogSettings" })

Then, when OnComplete is done, I would like to send a json object to a js function called loadDialogSettings.

This is the action:

public ActionResult UserSettingsTabsStructure()
    {

        return PartialView();

    }

How can I do that?
Even if a create a json like this:

public ActionResult UserSettingsTabsStructure()
    {

        Json(new
        {
            FormName = "Name",
        }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

        return PartialView();
    }

I am not sure how I am gonna return the object with the view().

Answer 1

You want to return the result of the Json extension method:

public ActionResult UserSettingsTabsStructure()
{
    return Json(new
    {
        FormName = "Name",
    }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
