Resolve POST method not Triggered in a MVC App

We will look into steps to be followed for resolving POST method not triggered within MVC App.

Sometimes, our POST method/action wrote in MVC application won't be fired. We will look into steps to be followed for fixing the issue:

1. Check your action in the controller is decorated with [HttpPost].
2. Make sure button that fires POST method is having type as submit.
3. Keep your submit button inside form tag or @Html.BeginForm()
4. verify, all your client validations are passed. If a client validation fails, it won't fire POST action. To confirm it, disable client validation by adding below code to the view:
   
   @(ViewContext.ClientValidationEnabled = true)
   
   Check whether any values within your ModelState have errors or not using below code:
    

   foreach(var item in ModelState.Values)

   {

   foreach (var error in item.Errors)

   {

   var errorMessage = error.ErrorMessage;

   var exception = error.Exception;

   }

   }

    

5. Use Fiddler or IE 9 Developer Tools [Network capture] to check POST request status.
