 public class TenantController : Controller
 {
        [Route("API/Tenant/GetTenants")]
        public IEnumerable<Tenant> GetTenants()
        {
            List<Tenant> objTenant = new List<Tenant>();
            try
            {
                objTenant = GetTenantFormDB().ToList();
                ViewBag.Tenant = objTenant;
            }
            catch (Exception ex) {
             //TODO: log error in db.
            }
            return objTenant;
        }

}

$("#ddlTenants").kendoDropDownList({
        optionLabel: "Please select a tenant...",
        dataTextField: "Name",
        dataValueField: "ID",
        dataSource: {
            type: "json",
            serverFiltering: true,
            transport: {
                read: "http://localhost:80/API/Tenant/GetTenants"
            }
        },
        change: function change(e) {
            //TODO : bindCompanyByTenantId(this._selectedValue);
        }
 });

The url (http://localhost:80/API/Tenant/GetTenants) call the API controller and return back the result and bind data source.
