Reading Session value in View MVC

I have a Session in my Controller as follow

Session["Fulldata"] = data;

Which stores data like Name,Id,City etc;

It stores multiple rows of such data.

How how do I access or check if any row has particular Name in it, in the View?

eg :

@if(Session("Fulldata").has("ABC"))
{
   //Do Something
}

I want to check Name for each row in Session. Any help will be appreciated

First you need to cast the Session("Fulldata") back to you type as session store your collection as object type.

List<CustomClass> data = (List<CustomClass>)Session("Fulldata");

If data is a collection you can use linq Enumerable.Any to Search 

@if(data.Any(d=>d.YourAttr1 == 'ABC' || d.YourAttr2 == 'ABC'))
{
   //Do Something
}

As a additional note please do not use session unnecessarily especially for big data as session will need space on your server and as user/session increase it could adversely effect the performance.
