I have a controller that makes a GET request and returns JSON. I want to then bind those values to the ViewModel that returns to the View.
[HTTPGET]
public async Task<IActionResult> Name(string id) {
ViewModel model = new ViewModel();
var name = await GetNameFromBYId(id);
name = model.Name;//HOW Do I do This?
}
[HTTPGET]
public async Task<IActionResult> Name(string id) {
ViewModel model = new ViewModel();
var name = await GetNameFromBYId(id);
model.Name = name; // Right code
}
This code
model.Name = name;
only works, if you've created the right Viewmodel before. That means you have defined the right Properties in it. In your example you need to define a "Name" property before in your model, to pass data trough it.
If you have Problems to understand how the MVVM - Pattern works you can search for a simple tutorial like this. Click and read (!), to learn how you make and use ViewModels. Enjoy!
model.Name=name;is the correct syntax
