return RedirectToAction(...) prettier url

Is there any possible way to maintain the format of my link as defined in the RouteConfig.cs mappings when calling RedirectToAction method?

ex [just for test]:

I have this route:

routes.MapRoute(
 "Token Verification",
 "Registration/TokenVerification/{ConfernceId}/{TokenType}/{TokenId}/{Email}",
new{
  controller="Registration",
  action="TokenVerification",
  ConfernceId= 0,
  TokenType='\0',
  TokenId="",
  Email=""
 }
);

I can call this link and my action if being routed correctly:

http://localhost:49619/Registration/TokenVerification/2/R/asdasdasd/[email protected]

But if I called RedirectToAction, it will generate the following url

http://localhost:49619/Registration/TokenVerification?ConfernceId=2&TokenType=R&Email=someone%40somewhere.com

It is working also, but it is not pretty at all!

Any suggestions ?

Use RedirectToRoute (from MSDN) to generate urls which are in format of specified routes.

 return RedirectToRoute("Token Verification", new
        {
            ConfernceId = 0,
            TokenType = "0",
            TokenId = "0",
            Email = "0"
        });

If you want to generate links, then check below perocess. use Url.RouteUrl (check MSDN resource). Say For example - 

@Url.RouteUrl("DefaultApi", new { httproute=true, controller="Albums", id=3})

will generate /api/Albums/3

In your case, it should be - 

@Url.RouteUrl("Token Verification", new
{
    controller = "Registration",
    action = "TokenVerification",
    ConfernceId = 0,
    TokenType = "0",
    TokenId = "0",
    Email = "0"
})

And it will generate - /Registration/TokenVerification/0/0/0/0
