You can achieve that by reading the file into a string and passing it into a ViewBag, for example.

string fileContent = System.IO.File.ReadAllText("C:/path/file.txt");
ViewBag.Whatever = fileContent;

Yes it is possible. You just need to read file contents to a string and than pass that value to Viewbag.

Something like that could work:

ViewBag.FileText = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Users\Public\TestFolder\WriteText.txt");
