I am trying to submit a object from a form to my mvc controller. here is the js:
<script>
function submitForm() {
var usersRoles = new Array;
jQuery("#dualSelectRoles2 option").each(function () {
usersRoles.push(jQuery(this).val());
});
var model = new Object();
model.user = jQuery('#selectUser').val();
model.roleslist = usersRoles;
console.log('model: ' + 'user: ' + model.user + 'roles: ' + model.roleslist);
console.log('JSON: ' + JSON.stringify(model));
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "@Url.Action("
AddUser ")",
dataType: "json",
//data: { model: JSON.stringify(usersRoles) },
data: {
model: JSON.stringify(model)
},
success: function (data) {
alert(data);
},
failure: function (errMsg) {
alert(errMsg);
}
});
}
now that fetches al the necessary info and builds the object "model" and then posts it to the controller.
Here is my view model:
//for receiving from form
public class submitUserRolesViewModel
{
public string userId { get; set; }
public List<String> rolesList { get; set; }
}
Here is my controller:
//Post/ Roles/AddUser
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AddUser(StrsubmitUserRolesViewModel model)
{
if (model != null)
{
return Json("Success");
}
else
{
return Json("An Error Has occoured");
}
}
How can I receive a json object in the controller? Now currently my model is null when a post is executed by the jquery. This means that it is not binding correctly. I am sure there is just something small wrong here.
Could you please point out where I am going wrong.
