Pass viewbag to partial view from action controller

You can use it as mentioned below :

In your View :

@Html.Partial("[ViewName]", (string)ViewBag.Message) 

And Your partial View :

@model String <b>@Model</b> 

As Shown Above ViewBag.Message will be passed to the partial view. and in your partial view you can use it as a @Model.

Note : here type of ViewBag.Message is string. You can pass any type.

If you don't have to use ViewBag, you can use TempData. TempData is shared for the whole execution chain.

public class PropertyController : BaseController { public ActionResult Index() { return View(); } public ActionResult Step1() { TempData["Hello"] = "Hello"; return PartialView(); } } 

In Index.cshtml View

@Html.Partial("Step1") 

Step1.cshtml partial view

@TempData["Hello"] 

Old question but if anyone here to find solution for this question..

You can pass viewbag value to partial with viewdatadictionary.

In your view:

@Html.Partial("_Partial", "", new ViewDataDictionary { { "permalink", ViewBag.Permalink } }) 

and in partial view use it like this:

ViewData["permalink"] 

You can try this in order to pass ViewBag to partial view from action:

Your controller:

public class PropertyController : Controller { public ActionResult Index() { return View(); } public ActionResult Step1() { ViewBag.Hello = "Hello"; return PartialView("_Partial1", ViewBag.Hello); } } 

Your view (Index.cshtml):

@Html.Action("Step1") 

Your partial view (_Partial1.cshtml):

@ViewBag.Hello 

return PartialView("partialviewname", obj);
