How can I convert this:

RoleManager roleManager = new RoleManager(new RoleStore(new IdentityDbContext()));

UserManager userManager = new UserManager(new UserStore(new ApplicationDbContext()));

roleManager.Create(new IdentityRole(RoleName));

ApplicationUser user = userManager.FindByEmail(UserName);

userManager.AddToRole(user.Id, RoleName);

to two dropdown lists and one button?

Hi ,
Try this
in your view page
@Html.DropDownList("selectedRoleId", (SelectList)ViewBag.RoleName)

in Controller
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Action(string selectedRoleId)
{

var roleid = selectedRoleId;
// if you want role name then you can fetch from database with the help of selectedRoleId

return View();
}

i hope this will help you

I created it in view. I want to save selected value from dropdown list to variable. Is it possible?

Do you want to create a Dropdownlist in view?

I create two dropdown lists with this code:

private Entities db = new Entities();
List selectListItems = new List();
foreach (AspNetUsers userName in db.AspNetUsers)
{
SelectListItem selectListItem = new SelectListItem
{
Text = userName.UserName,
Value = userName.Id.ToString()
};
selectListItems.Add(selectListItem);
}
ViewBag.UserName = selectListItems;
List selectListItems1 = new List();
foreach (AspNetRoles roleName in db.AspNetRoles)
{
SelectListItem selectListItem = new SelectListItem
{
Text = roleName.Name,
Value = roleName.Id.ToString()
};
selectListItems1.Add(selectListItem);
}
ViewBag.RoleName = selectListItems1;

and I don know how to take value from selected item and use it in variable UserName or RoleName

The code you have shown is server side code while you are asking to add dropdown list and button on view. Then your title says you want to add role to default database. Your question is not clear kindly revise it so that you can get specific answer.
