Hi,

I have an asp.net MVC core application. I am trying to query a database in one of my controller's action. How can I add this dto into my View? Or is there any other way to retrieve data by grouping and display on the view. I am getting this error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ViewResult' to 'System.Collections.Generic.List<GameMonitor.Models.GameBanksDto>' Since I can not add more than one model in the view, I need to figure out something else.

Here is my action:

namespace GameMonitor.Controllers
{
    public class GameBanksController : Controller
    {
        private readonly GameContext _context;

        public GameBanksController(GameContext context)
        {
            _context = context;
        }

        // GET: GameBanks
        public async Task<List<GameBanksDto>> Index()
        {
            //Group By games
            var games = await _context.GameBanks.GroupBy(g =>new {g.ProductCode,g.UnitPrice,g.ProductDescription})
                .Select(gcs => new GameBanksDto()
                {
                    ProductCode = gcs.Key.ProductCode,
                    ProductDescription = gcs.Key.ProductDescription,
                    UnitPrice = gcs.Key.UnitPrice,
                    Quantity = gcs.Sum(g => g.Quantity)


                }).ToListAsync();

            return View(games);
        }
 

     
    }
}

Here is my View:

@model IEnumerable<GameMonitor.Models.GameBanks>


@{
    ViewData["Title"] = "Index";
}

<h2>Games</h2>

@*<p>
        <a asp-action="Create">Create New</a>

            </th>
            <th>
                @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Quantity)
