ASP.NET Core: redirect from GET to POST

Question

I want to call MarriageById as GET, like this:

var url = \'/MarriageById?id=\' + id;

But I also want to have a single Action

Answer 1

Using RedirectToAction always implies a GET, so this won't work to reach the Marriage action method that only accepts POST.

However there is nothing wrong with calling the other method yourself, it is still a method like any other. So try this instead:

return Marriage(marriage);

And on a side note: if the Marriage method will always only be used to display data, and never to save, store or change data, then using POST is not the best choice. POST typically implies a call with side effects (save, store, change, or even delete), and in general it is best to stick to that convention.
