ASP.NET MVC - Get Current Area Name in View or Con

Question

How do you get the current area name in the view or controller?

Is there anything like ViewContext.RouteData.Values["controller"] for areas?

Answer 1

In ASP.NET Core 1.0 the value is found in

ViewContext.RouteData.Values["area"];

Answer 2

In MVC 2 you can use ViewContext.RouteData.DataTokens["area"]

Answer 3

I know this is a very very old post but we can use the Values Property exactly the same way as the DataTokens

Url.RequestContext.RouteData.Values["action"] worked for me.
