Im wondering is it possible to render a view from a json result, basically when the user clicks on a button in my view, i want to go and fetch data from my controller/model using json result, with this data i want to open a view with the new data, is this possible?
AJax Call
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '@Url.Action("GetAdminSubmissions", "Inspections")',
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
datatype: JSON,
data: { 'selectedDepartment': deparment, 'searchDate': selectedDate },
success: function (result) {
// on success open view with new updated model
},
error: function (result) {
alert(result);
}
});
}
Controller
public JsonResult GetAdminSubmissions(string selectedDepartment, string searchDate)
{
var result = new List<Checks_Records>();
if (searchDate != null)
{
var enUkCultureInfo = new CultureInfo("en-GB");
var userSelectedDate = DateTime.Today.Date.AddHours(7);
DateTime parsedDate;
if (DateTime.TryParseExact(searchDate, "dd-MMMM-yyyy", enUkCultureInfo, DateTimeStyles.None, out parsedDate))
{
userSelectedDate = parsedDate.AddHours(7);
result = Model.GetListofChecks_Records(userSelectedDate, selectedDepartment);
var json = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(result);
return Json(json, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
}
return error;
}
