Another possibility is to inject your HubContext into your controller like:

public VarDesignCommController(IHubContext hubcontext)
{
    HubContext = hubcontext;
    ...
}

private IHubContext HubContext
{
    get;
    set;
}

Then you can also call

await this.HubContext.Clients.All.InvokeAsync("Completed", id);

But then you will direct call methods on all clients.
