Ajax request or method in controller (ASP.NET)?

Question

ASP.NET

ASP.NET Core project with connected Identity. There are two controllers Manage and Admin.
Index method in the Manage controller

There is an admin area where, when the edit button is clicked, the Manage controller's Index method is called with the Id parameter of the corresponding user. It is


required that the account editing form appear on the same page where the admin area is located. There are only two ways in my mind, to create a duplicate method in the Admin controller, or by ajax request to get the result of the execution of the Index method and embed it in the page. Is there any solution?

Answer 1

I think you answered your own question. By pressing the Edit button, two options follow: either send a request via ajax, and then paste the result somewhere, or simply make a normal request with a page refresh. The third is simply not given. In any case, you will have to create a new action method that generates a response to the request, and in which controller to create it is up to you.
