I want to get all the error messages out of the modelState without knowing the key values. Looping through to grab all the error messages that the ModelState contains.
How can I do this?

Anybody looking for asp.net core 3.1. Slightly updated than the above answer. I found that this is what [ApiController] returns
Dictionary<string, List<string>> errors = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>();
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, ModelStateEntry> kvp in ViewData.ModelState)
{
string key = kvp.Key;
ModelStateEntry entry = kvp.Value;
if (entry.Errors.Count > 0)
{
List<string> errorList = new List<string>();
foreach (ModelError error in entry.Errors)
{
errorList.Add(error.ErrorMessage);
}
errors[key] = errorList;
}
}
return new JsonResult(new {Errors = errors});
This code snippet is useful too and give you a List that contains of Error Messges.
var errors = ModelState.Values.SelectMany(x => x.Errors.Select(c => c.ErrorMessage)).ToList();
<div class="text-danger" style="direction:rtl" asp-validation-summary="All"></div>
simply use asp-validation-summary Tag Helper
For AJAX Request better solution:
public IActionResult Demo(DemoInfo formData)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
IEnumerable<object> formErrors = ModelState.Select((s) => new {
fieldName = s.Key,
fieldValue = s.Value.RawValue,
fieldMessage = s.Value.Errors.FirstOrDefault()?.ErrorMessage
});
return Json(new { formValid = 0, formErrors });
}
return Json(new { formValid = 1 });
}
Response format will be:
{"formValid":0,
"formErrors":[{
"fieldName":"name of field from object",
"fieldValue":"value from browser",
"fieldMessage":null /*Error message from model annotations if field is valid the value will be null */
}]
}

var x = new Dictionary<string,string>();
for (var b = 0; b < ViewData.ModelState.Values.Count(); b++)
{
if (ViewData.ModelState.Values.ElementAt(b).Errors.Count() > 0)
x.Add(ViewData.ModelState.Keys.ElementAt(b), String.Join(",", ViewData
.ModelState.Values.ElementAt(b).Errors.Select(c => c.ErrorMessage)));
}
var result = string.Join(',',ModelState.Values.SelectMany(v => v.Errors).Select(a=>a.ErrorMessage));
