RedirectToAction where the Controller is in an Area

I'm getting started with ASP.Net core MVC 3.1 and have an area called Foo:

endpoints.MapAreaControllerRoute(
    name: "Foo",
    areaName: "Foo",
    pattern: "{area:exists}/{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}"
);

And in this area a controller called Test with an Index action: https://localhost:44390/Foo/Test/ - this works fine.

I'm trying to redirect to this from another controller with

return RedirectToAction("Index", "Test", new { area = "Foo" });

but this is sending me to https://localhost:44390/Test?area=Foo

How can I use RedirectToAction() to end up at https://localhost:44390/Foo/Test/ ?

I think you should below code:

namespace Solution.Areas.ControlPanel.Controllers
{
    [Area(nameof(Foo))]
    [Route(nameof(Foo) + "/[controller]")]
    public class HomeController : Controller
    {
        public IActionResult Index() => View();
    }
}

You can use the following code

set route in Configure:

"{area:exists}/{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}"

then

public IActionResult Index()
{
   return RedirectToAction("Index", "Test", new { area = "Foo" });
}

then 

[Area("Foo")]
[Route("[controller]")]
public class TestController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }
}

I reproduce your problem when MapAreaControllerRoute is placed after the default route.So, to resolve it, your area route config must go at first place.

 app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
        {
            endpoints.MapAreaControllerRoute(
               name: "Foo",
               areaName: "Foo",
               pattern: "{area:exists}/{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}"
           );
            endpoints.MapControllerRoute(
                name: "default",
                pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");

        });

put these attributes in the Test Controller.

[Area(nameof(Foo))]
[Route(nameof(Foo) + "/[controller]")]
