Question

I have this route:

routes.MapRoute(null, "Users/{id}/Summary", new { controller = "Users", action = "GetSummary" });

How can I specify this using a Url.Action?

I’m currently using:

string path = Url.Action("Index", "Users", new { id = user.Id } ) + "/Summary";

Is there a cleaner approach?

Answer 1

Why are you using Index when the action is GetSummary?

string path = Url.Action("GetSummary", "Users", new { id = user.Id } );

You probably want to give your Route a name

routes.MapRoute("GetSummary", "Users/{id}/Summary", 
    new 
    {
        controller = "Users", 
        action = "GetSummary" 
    });
