Why it value does not send in to ajax post?

I'm a newbie working with ajax. I have a problem while sending the data into ajax post.
The output of console.log(obj.Id) and console.log(oke) is 2. Then I tried to send it through data in ajax, but it end up 0 in the controller.
$(function () {
$("body").on('click', '#btnEdit', function () {
alert("clicked ok");
$("#addRowModal").modal("hide");
var obj = {};
obj.Id = $(this).attr('data-id');
oke = $(this).data("id");
console.log(obj.Id)
console.log(oke)
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("Details", "InvoicePPh")',
data: oke,
type: 'POST',
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (response) {
alert("sukses");
},
error: function(response) {
alert("error")
}
});
});
});
And my controller looks like this
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult Details(int id)
{
var obj = dbContext.invoicePPhs.FirstOrDefault(s => s.Id == id);
InvoicePPh pph = new InvoicePPh();
pph2326.TaxForm = obj.TaxForm;
return Json(pph);
}
I want the '2' value that passes into my controller, how can I do that? Thank you for your help.

An alternative way to send your data your Controller method using Ajax would be to wrap your data in a JSON object and then send it to the server for processing. The server will be then deserialize your JSON object and you can access the required properties from that process:
$(function () {
$("body").on('click', '#btnEdit', function () {
alert("clicked ok");
$("#addRowModal").modal("hide");
var obj = {};
obj.Id = $(this).attr('data-id');
oke = $(this).data("id");
console.log(obj.Id)
console.log(oke)
var json = {
oke: oke
};
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("Details", "InvoicePPh")',
data: {'json': JSON.stringify(json)},
type: 'POST',
dataType: "json",
success: function (response) {
alert("sukses");
},
error: function(response) {
alert("error")
}
});
});
});
And your Controller method will be:
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult Details(string json)
{
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
dynamic jsondata = serializer.Deserialize(json, typeof(object));
//Get your variables here from AJAX call
var id= Convert.Int32(jsondata["id"]);
var obj = dbContext.invoicePPhs.FirstOrDefault(s => s.Id == id);
InvoicePPh pph = new InvoicePPh();
pph2326.TaxForm = obj.TaxForm;
return Json(pph);
}

If you just need id in your method parameter just change data in ajax to:
contentType: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
data: { 'id': oke },
id is name of parameter from controller method.

Please change the data property in ajax part.
$.ajax({
url: '#Url.Action("Details", "InvoicePPh")',
data: { 'id': oke },
type: 'POST',
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function (response) {
alert("sukses");
},
error: function(response) {
alert("error")
}
});

Web service receiving null with jQuery post JSON

The web service on http://localhost:57501/api/addDatabase has the following code.
[System.Web.Mvc.HttpPost]
public ActionResult Post(addDatabase pNuevaConeccion)
{
pNuevaConeccion.insertarMetaData();
return null;
}
The Ajax function is on a javascript that creates the JSON from the give values on http://localhost:1161/CreateServer.
$(document).ready(function ()
{
$("#createServer").click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault(); //Prevent the normal submission action
var frm = $("#CreateServerID");
var dataa = JSON.stringify(frm.serializeJSON());
console.log(dataa);
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'http://localhost:57501/api/addDatabase/',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
crossDomain: true,
//ContentLength: dataa.length,
data: dataa,
datatype: 'json',
error: function (response)
{
alert(response.responseText);
},
success: function (response)
{
alert(response);
if (response == "Database successfully connected") {
var pagina = "/CreateServer"
location.href = pagina
}
}
});
});
});
When I run this code an alert pops up saying "undefined" but if I delete the contentType the alert doesn't show up. The problem is that the variables that the function Post (from the web service) receives are NULL even though I know that the JSON named dataa is not NULL since I did a console.log.
I have seen various examples and pretty much all of them say that I should use a relative URL but the problem is that since there are 2 different domains and when I tried it, it couldn't find the URL since it's not in the same localhost.

Web service should return a JSON format instead of null. like below example.
public JsonResult Post()
{
string output = pNuevaConeccion.insertarMetaData();
return Json(output, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

try to use this code for calling the web method
$.ajax({
method: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
data: dataa,
url: 'http://localhost:57501/api/addDatabase/',
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function (error) {
console.log(error);
}
});

its my old code.(ensure action parameter variable name and post variable name are same)
$('#ConnectionAddres_ZonesId').change(function () {
var optionSelected = $(this).find("option:selected");
var id = { id: optionSelected.val() };
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '#Url.Action("GetParetArea", "Customers")',
contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
data: JSON.stringify(id),
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
$('#ConnectionAddres_ParentAreaId').empty().append('<option value="">Select parent area</option>');
$.each(data, function (index, value) {
$('#ConnectionAddres_ParentAreaId').append($('<option />', {
value: value.Id,
text: value.Area
}));
});
},
});
});
public ActionResult GetParetArea(int id)
{
var parents="";
return Json(parents, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

500 error coming when I run my ajax function

I am new to MVC and trying out the ajax functionality on my website. Whenever, I run my ajax function it returns 500 in alert.
This is my controller code
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult JsonNewsfeed(int id)
{
var db = new dekhosaleEntities1();
sale s = db.sales.First(m => m.sale_id == id);
List<sale> sale1 = db.sales.ToList();
saleviewmodel model = new saleviewmodel
{
currentsale = s,
Sales = sale1
};
return Json(model);
}
This is my Jquery ajax function
$('.b1').click(function () {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: 'json',
url: '#Url.Action("JsonNewsfeed", "Home")',
data:"{ id: 5}",
success: function (data) {
alert(data);
},
error: function (response) {
alert(response.status);
}
});
});

public ActionResult JsonNewsfeed(int id)
{
try
{
....logic here....
return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//TODO: log exception
return new HttpStatusCodeResult(401, ex.Message);
}
}
you could also return like this instead:
return Content(jsonObject.ToString(), "application/json");
or
return Content("Your message",...
Then in your ajax call change the success to:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
url: "/someDir/someAjaxControllerMethod",
data: jStr,
success: function (json) {
...do something...
var s = JSON.stringify(json);
alert(s);
},
error: function (event) {
alert(event.statusText);
}
});

Try to correct you ajax request ...
like URL...(url: 'Url.Action("JsonNewsfeed", "Home")')
data (data: {id:id}) (if needed check that too)

How to pass a list of id's in a AJAX request to the Server in MVC

In a AJAX request to the server in MVC, how can I pass a list of id's to the controller's action function?
I accept with or without use of Html helpers.
I know MVC's model binder has no problem when it comes to simple types like int, string and bool.
Is it something like I have to use and array instead in the action?
I don't care if I have to use an array or List and even if the strings I int or strings I can always convert them. I just need them on the server.
My List ids gives null at the moment.
Javascript:
var ids= [1,4,5];
// ajax request with ids..
MVC Action:
public ActionResult ShowComputerPackageBuffer(List<int> ids) // ids are null
{
// build model ect..
return PartialView(model);
}
EDIT: Added my AJAX request
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#spanComputerPackagesBuffer').on('click', function () {
var ids = $('#divComputerPackagesBuffer').data('buffer');
console.log('bufferIds: ' + bufferIds);
var data = {
ids: ids
};
var url = getUrlShowComputerPackageBuffer();
loadTable(url, "result", data);
});
});
// AJAX's
function loadTable(url, updateTargetId, data) {
var promise = $.ajax({
url: url,
dataType: "html",
data: data
})
.done(function (result) {
$('#' + updateTargetId).html(result);
})
.fail(function (jqXhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
var errMsg = textStatus.toUpperCase() + ": " + errorThrown + '. Could not load HTML.';
alert(errMsg);
});
};
// URL's
function getUrlShowComputerPackageBuffer() {
return '#Url.Action("ShowComputerPackageBuffer", "Buffer")';
};
SOLUTIONS: // Thanks to #aherrick comment. I missed the good old "traditional"
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '#Url.Action("ShowComputerPackageBuffer", "Buffer")',
dataType: "json",
traditional: true,
data: {
bufferIds: bufferIds
}
});

Use the traditional parameter and set it to true.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/URL",
dataType: "json",
traditional: true,
data: {}
});

Try this one (I've checked it):
$(function () {
var ids = [1, 4, 5];
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
url: '#Url.Action("YourAction", "YourController")',
data: JSON.stringify( { ids: ids })
}).done(function () {
});
});
You have to make sure your contentType is application/json and your data is stringified.

public ActionResult SaveSomething(int[] requestData)
//or
public ActionResult SaveSomething(IEnumerable<int> requestData)
Using Action Result you cannot receive JSON object:
Using Controler:
[HttpPost]
[Route( "api/Controller/SaveSomething" )]
public object SaveTimeSheet( int[] requestData )
{
try
{
doSomethingWith( requestData );
return new
{
status = "Ok",
message = "Updated!"
};
}
catch( Exception ex )
{
return new
{
status = "Error",
message = ex.Message
};
}
}
java script:
var ids = [1,4,5];
var baseUrl: 'localhost/yourwebsite'
$.ajax({
url: baseUrl + '/api/Controller/SaveSomething',
type: 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify(ids),
dataType: 'json',
contentType: 'application/json',
error: function (xhr) {
alert('Error: ' + xhr.statusText);
},
success: function (result) {
if (result != undefined) {
window.location.href = window.location.href;
}
},
async: false,
});

Server side method not getting called

From the below javascript code i am trying to call a serverside method, but serververside method is not getting called. I am using jquery, ajax
<script type="text/javascript" src="JquryLib.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function fnPopulateCities() {
debugger;
var State = $("#ddlState").val();
GetCities(State);
return false;
}
function GetCities(StateId) {
debugger;
var v1 = 'StateId: ' + StateId;
$.ajax(
{
type: "POST",
url: 'DropDownList_Cascade.aspx/PopulateCities',
data: '{' + v1 + '}',
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (result) {
if (result.status === "OK") {
alert('Success!!');
}
else {
fnDisplayCities(result);
}
},
error: function (req, status, error) {
alert("Sorry! Not able to retrieve cities");
}
});
}
</script>
This is my serverside method which i need to call.
private static ArrayList PopulateCities(int StateId)
{
//this code returns Cities ArrayList from database.
}
It is giving me the following error: 500 (Internal Server Error)
I cannot figure out what is wrong. please help!
Stack Trace:
[ArgumentException: Unknown web method PopulateCities.Parameter name: methodName]

use this script:
function fnPopulateCities() {
debugger;
var State = $("#ddlState").val();
GetCities(State);
return false;
}
function GetCities(StateId) {
debugger;
var data = {
'StateId': StateId
};
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'DropDownList_Cascade.aspx/PopulateCities',
data: JSON.stringify(data), // using from JSON.stringify is much better than to try stringify data manually
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (result) {
if (result.status === "OK") {
alert('Success!!');
}
else {
fnDisplayCities(result);
}
},
error: function (req, status, error) {
alert("Sorry! Not able to retrieve cities");
}
});
}
and this code for your code behind:
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static ArrayList PopulateCities(int StateId)
{
//this code returns Cities ArrayList from database.
}

Use this script
function GetCities(StateId) {
debugger;
var v1 = "{'StateId': '" + StateId+"'}";
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'DropDownList_Cascade.aspx/PopulateCities',
data: v1,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (result) {
if (result.status === "OK") {
alert('Success!!');
}
else {
fnDisplayCities(result);
}
},
error: function (req, status, error) {
alert("Sorry! Not able to retrieve cities");
}
});
}
and modify Code Behind
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static ArrayList PopulateCities(int StateId)
{
//this code returns Cities ArrayList from database.
}
