how to pass a Model from a controller to another controller

I'm starter in .NET MVC. I want to pass a model from one controller to another controller, model contain a password. My first controller is auth method, in that I used Claims, but another controller is a vote method there I need to Post an ID, Password and Vote. Password I need in vote controller for voting confirmation in database.
My code:
My model:
public class LoginModel
{
public string IDNP { get; set; }
public string VnPassword { get; set;
}
My first controller:
public class AuthController : Controller
{
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<ActionResult> Index(LoginModel model)
{
var data = new LoginData();
data.IDNP = model.IDNP;
data.VnPassword = model.VnPassword;
var response = await session.Login(data);
if (response.Status == true)
{
var authclaims = new List<Claim>()
{
new Claim(ClaimTypes.Name, data.IDNP),
};
var authIdentity = new ClaimsIdentity(authclaims, "User Identity");
var userPrincipal = new ClaimsPrincipal(new[] {authIdentity});
HttpContext.SignInAsync(userPrincipal);
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Vote",new{pass=data.VnPassword});
}
else
{
return View();
}
}
}
My second controller:
public class VoteController : Controller
{
private IVote connection;
public VoteController()
{
var bl = new BusinessManager();
connection = bl.GetVote();
}
[Authorize]
public IActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<ActionResult> Index(VoteModel vote)
{
var identity = (ClaimsIdentity)User.Identity;
var voteindex = new VoteData();
voteindex.IDNP = identity.Name;
voteindex.VnPassword = ;
voteindex.Party = vote.Party;
var response = await connection.Vote(voteindex);
if (response.Status == true)
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
else
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Auth");
}
}
}

Actually, it's a bad idea to send Id and Password to another controller. It conflicts SRP rule.
You should have only one controller that gets and uses password.
However, if you want to use this action, you can use this

Object Reference not set to an instance of an object? (Exception error ~ ASP.NET MVC)

Currently i am using variables inside my view that have been declared within a model, and assigned values within the respective controller. I am using Model.variableName to reference these variables, however the following exception is thrown during debugging;
I am using the following namespaces within my view;
#using ProjectName.Models
#model Category
My class model;
public class Category
{
public string result { get; set; }
}
My controller;
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult ReadCategory()
{
var dataFile = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Category.txt");
Category passCategory = new Category
{
result = "",
delimiterChar = new[] { ',' },
userData = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(dataFile)
};
return View(passCategory);
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try moving your code to your index action result like this: (as I suspect your action result ReadCategory is not being utilized)
public ActionResult Index()
{
var dataFile = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Category.txt");
Category passCategory = new Category
{
result = "",
delimiterChar = new[] { ',' },
userData = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(dataFile)
};
return View(passCategory);
}

CRUD Methods is not activated telerik scheduler asp.net MVC core

I'm using Telerik Scheduler asp.net MVC Core UI Controller. I have a problem with the following methods Date_Grouping_Read, Date_Grouping_Destroy, Date_Grouping_Create and Date_Grouping_Update. They are not firing when I try to update or create meeting?
//HomeController
namespace TelerikScheduler.Controllers
{
public partial class HomeController : Controller
{
private IMeetingData meetingData;
public HomeController(IMeetingData meetingData)
{
this.meetingData = meetingData;
}
public IActionResult Index()
{
var model = new HomePageViewModel();
model.Rooms = meetingData.GetAll();
return View(model);
}
public IActionResult Details(int id)
{
var model = meetingData.Get(id);
if (model == null)
{
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View(model);
}
public IActionResult Error()
{
return View();
}
public virtual JsonResult Date_Grouping_Read([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)
{
return Json(meetingData.GetAll().ToDataSourceResult(request));
}
public virtual JsonResult Date_Grouping_Destroy([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Meeting meeting)
{
meetingData.delete(meeting);
return Json(new[] { meeting }.ToDataSourceResult(request, ModelState));
}
public virtual JsonResult Date_Grouping_Create([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Meeting meeting)
{
meetingData.Insert(meeting);
return Json(new[] { meeting }.ToDataSourceResult(request, ModelState));
}
public virtual JsonResult Date_Grouping_Update([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Meeting meeting)
{
meetingData.Update(meeting);
return Json(new[] { meeting }.ToDataSourceResult(request, ModelState));
}
}
}
View
#(Html.Kendo().Scheduler<Meeting>().Name("Meeting").Date(new DateTime(2017, 5, 13))
.StartTime(new DateTime(2017, 5,13, 7, 00, 00))
.Views(views=>{
views.DayView();
views.AgendaView();
})
.Height(600)
.Timezone("Etc/UTC")
.Group(group => { group.Resources("Rooms"); group.Date(true); })
.Resources(resource =>
{
resource.Add(m => m.RoomId).Title("Room").Name("Rooms").DataTextField("Text").DataValueField("Value").DataColorField("Color").BindTo(new[] {
new { Text = "Meeting Room 101", Value = 1, Color = "#6eb3fa" },
new { Text = "Meeting Room 201", Value = 2, Color = "#f58a8a" }
});
resource.Add(m => m.Attendees)
.Title("Attendees")
.Multiple(true)
.DataTextField("Text")
.DataValueField("Value")
.DataColorField("Color")
.BindTo(new[] {
new { Text = "Alex", Value = 1, Color = "#f8a398" } ,
new { Text = "Bob", Value = 2, Color = "#51a0ed" } ,
new { Text = "Charlie", Value = 3, Color = "#56ca85" }
});
}).DataSource(d => d
.Model(m =>
{
m.Id(f => f.RecordId);
m.Field(f => f.Title).DefaultValue("No title");
m.Field(f => f.Title).DefaultValue("No title");
})
.Read("Date_Grouping_Read", "Scheduler")
.Create("Date_Grouping_Create", "Scheduler")
.Destroy("Date_Grouping_Destroy", "Scheduler")
.Update("Date_Grouping_Update", "Scheduler")
)
.BindTo(Model.Rooms).Deferred())
#section scripts {
#Html.Kendo().DeferredScripts();
}

Of course they won't fire when the control is setup for the wrong Controller...
.Read("Date_Grouping_Read", "Scheduler")
.Create("Date_Grouping_Create", "Scheduler")
.Destroy("Date_Grouping_Destroy", "Scheduler")
.Update("Date_Grouping_Update", "Scheduler")
All show Scheduler when since you have posted code for Home should be
.Read("Date_Grouping_Read", "Home")
.Create("Date_Grouping_Create", "Home")
.Destroy("Date_Grouping_Destroy", "Home")
.Update("Date_Grouping_Update", "Home")

OK, I read through your post again and you want to submit the form when click on the button actually. So, let's try to put the value in the session
Session["enteringValue"] = model.EnteredValue;
And you can retrieve it using
string enteredValueId = (string)(Session["enteringValue"]);
