How to get @Url.Action value inside a controller

Question

I am using ASP.net core

I can use an Html action inside a view

@Url.Action("GetOptions", "ControllerName", new { id="1"}); 

However I want to get a string value of it in the Controller.

e.g. something like

string Url= Url.Action("GetOptions", "ControllerName", new { id="1"}).ToString(); 

In previous versions of MVC you can reference the helper in the controller by

  UrlHelper urlHelper = new UrlHelper(HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext); 

Basically what I want to do is generate a URL string representation in my controller

Answer 1

In order for the route values to work correctly for me I had to use the static invocation of the url helpers

UrlHelperExtensions.Action(Url, "Details", "Resellers", new { id = 1 })

Edit: The shorthand way of writing this is:

this.Url.Action("Details", "Resellers", new { id = 1 })
