Model not getting passed to controller

I have this index view:

@model LeadManager.Models.ProspectingApprovalViewModel

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Approve Or Reject</h2>
<div class="form-horizontal">
@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
    <div class="form-group">
        <div>
            <input type="submit" name="ApprovalAction" value="Approve" class="btn btn-default" />
            <input type="submit" name="ApprovalAction" value="Reject" class="btn btn-default" />
        </div>
    </div>
}
</div>

//model details are below form

I am trying to read the model inside controller like so:

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Index(ProspectingApprovalViewModel prospectingApprovalViewModel, string ApprovalAction)
{
    //access model
}

I can read ApprovalAction but the prospectingApprovalViewModel is null on the postback.

Why is the model not being attached?

  1. Your helper must be inside the form.
  2. When you use two class in parameter in name of html helper must be name="className.propetyName".
  3. When you want to post two classes you must use ViewModel.
