How to pass Area in Url.Action?

@Url.Action("{action}", "{controller}", new { Area = "areaname" });
@Html.ActionLink("LinkName", "{action}", "{controller}", new { area = "{areaname}" }, new { @class = "btn btn-cool" })

write area name as html attribute with anonymus object. you can use actionlink html helper extension method to achieve same thing.


You can use this Url.Action("actionName", "controllerName", new { Area = "areaName" });

Also don't forget to add the namespace of the controller to avoid a conflict between the admin area controller names and the site controller names.

Something like this

 public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
        {
            context.MapRoute(
                "Admin_default",
                "Admin/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
                new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
                  new[] { "Site.Mvc.Areas.Admin.Controllers" }
            );
        }
