ASP.NET MVC: Redirecting to an Action on a different application.

Question

I have a copule of MVC apps. I'd like to be able to redirect from one to another? Do I just post to the specific app I'm trying to hit? Is there a way to Html.RedirectToAction on a different app?

Answer 1

you can use RedirectResult:

public ActionResult SomeAction()
{
    // do stuff...
    return Redirect("http://myurl.com");
}

Answer 2

What's stopping you from doing the following inside your action?

return Redirect("http://www.otherapp.com/product/category");

If you don't want to hard code the http://www.otherapp.com then you could put a configuration setting inside your web.config file for it...?
