How to replace string or hide string in url after mapping to controller from view?

Question

I am trying to hide or replace string in the URL after mapping to controller from view.

View

    <a href='@Url.Action("Product", "Index", new { prodID [email protected] 
    })'>

Controller

      public ActionResult Product()
      {

        return View(model);
      }

Now I am getting this in URL like this http://localhost:9210/Index/Product?prodID=1 But I want url like this http://localhost:9210/Index/Product/1 So how can I do this? Please help

Answer 1

You have to pass like this.

<a href='@Url.Action("Product", "Index", new { id [email protected] 
})'>

Probably becuase the parameter defined in the route.config file will be by the name id and not prodID

Answer 2

You can specify the route expected with the Route attribute.

[Route("Index/Product/{prodId}")]
public IHttpActionResult UpdateStatus(int prodId)
{
}
