title: How to get the id value in controller/action/id
body: <p>I have an edit application view, and it can be found at the following URL:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://localhost:17262/Application/EditApplication/1" rel="nofollow">http://localhost:17262/Application/EditApplication/1</a></p>
  
  <p>1 equals the application ID.</p>
  
  <p>Also on the page I have a link that goes to another view to add an assistant for the application.  I want to pass it the application ID so that the new assistant can be "linked" to this application.  How would I get the value of 1 and add it to my action link?  This is what I have in my HTML so far:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%: Html.ActionLink("Add New Assistant", "Create", "Assistant", new { applicationID = "id" }, null) %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Please could someone advise?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
