This article is an overview of FileResult in ASP.Net Core MVC. The FileResult actions are used to read and write files. FileResult is the parent of all file-related action results. There is a method on ControllerBase class called File. This method accepts a set of parameters based on the type of file and its location, which maps directly to the more specific return types.

ActionResult In ASP.NET Core MVC

There are different type of file results in core MVC.

FileResult

FileContentResult

FileStreamResult

VirtualFileResult

PhysicalFileResult

public FileResult DownloadFile()

return File( "/Files/File Result.pdf", "text/plain", "File Result.pdf");

FileContentResult

FileContentResult is an ActionResult that when executed will write a binary file to the response.

public FileContentResult DownloadContent()

var myfile = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes( "wwwroot/Files/FileContentResult.pdf");

return new FileContentResult(myfile, "application/pdf");

FileStreamResult

FileStreamResult Sends binary content to the response by using a Stream instance when we want to return the file as a FileStream.

public FileStreamResult CreateFile()

var stream = new MemoryStream(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes( "Hello World"));

return new FileStreamResult(stream, new MediaTypeHeaderValue( "text/plain"))

FileDownloadName = "test.txt"

VirtualFileResult

A FileResult that on execution writes the file specified using a virtual path to the response using mechanisms provided by the host. You can use VirtualFileResult if you want to read a file from a virtual address and return it .

public VirtualFileResult VirtualFileResult()

return new VirtualFileResult( "/Files/PhysicalFileResult.pdf", "application/pdf");

PhysicalFileResult

A FileResult on execution will write a file from disk to the response using mechanisms provided by the host.You can use PhysicalFileResult to read a file from a physical address and return it, as shown in PhysicalFileResult method.

public PhysicalFileResult PhysicalFileResult()

return new PhysicalFileResult(_environment.ContentRootPath + "/wwwroot/Files/PhysicalFileResult.pdf", "application/pdf");
