Access parameters from a URL in ActionResult

I am receiving the following URL and the Callback view from the ProcessToken controller is being displayed:

http://localhost:4151/ProcessToken/CallBack#token_type=Bearer&access_token=54EXXXXXXXXX3GE4

In Callback ActionResult code, I want to access the token_type and access_token.

How do I do this?

It is part of the fragment and therefore you cannot access it at server side.

Read this: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2396#section-4

When a URI reference is used to perform a retrieval action on the
identified resource, the optional fragment identifier, separated from
the URI by a crosshatch ("#") character, consists of additional
reference information to be interpreted by the user agent after the
retrieval action has been successfully completed.  As such, it is not
part of a URI, but is often used in conjunction with a URI.

You can access query-string-parameters with model-binding as ken4z pointed out.

You can read the hash-part with jquery:

var data = window.location.hash.substring(1);
$.post('[YOUR_URL]', data, function () {
    // SUCCEEDED, redirect or so
});

Like ken4z says, you should use parameters to model bind. Otherwise, you can use Request.QueryString to access them.

do what ken4z suggested, if not, you can always read the query strings from the Request object.

Request.QueryString["token_type"]
Request.QueryString["access_token"]

Please provide more information and an example of what you think the ActionResult method should be. But based on what I think you are asking:

public ActionResult CallBack(string token_type, string access_token){ //Do Something }
