razor
contextmenu.cs
@Html.EJS().Grid("ContextMenu").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).AllowSorting(true).AllowExcelExport(true).AllowPdfExport(true).EditSettings(edit => edit.AllowAdding(true).AllowEditing(true).AllowDeleting(true)).Columns(col =>
{
    col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("Order ID").Width("120").IsPrimaryKey(true).TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
    col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("Customer Name").Width("150").Add();
    col.Field("OrderDate").HeaderText("Order Date").Width("130").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
    col.Field("Freight").HeaderText("Freight").Width("120").Format("C2").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
    col.Field("ShippedDate").HeaderText("Shipped Date").Width("140").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
    col.Field("ShipCountry").HeaderText("Ship Country").Width("150").Add();

}).AllowPaging().ContextMenuItems(new List<object>() { "AutoFit", "AutoFitAll", "SortAscending", "SortDescending", "Copy", "Edit", "Delete", "Save", "Cancel", "PdfExport", "ExcelExport", "CsvExport", "FirstPage", "PrevPage", "LastPage", "NextPage" }).Render()
public IActionResult Index()
{
    var Order = OrderDetails.GetAllRecords();
    ViewBag.DataSource = Order;
    return View();
}

Custom context menu items

The custom context menu items can be added by defining the ContextMenuItems as a collection of ContextMenuItemModel. Actions for this customized items can be defined in the ContextMenuClick event.

razor
customcontextmenu.cs
@{
      List<object> ContextMenuitems = new List<object>();
      ContextMenuitems.Add(new { text = "Copy with headers", target = ".e-content", id = "copywithheader" });
}

@Html.EJS().Grid("Customcontext").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Columns(col =>
   {
       col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("Order ID").Width("120").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
       col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("Customer Name").Width("150").Add();
       col.Field("OrderDate").HeaderText("Order Date").Width("130").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
       col.Field("Freight").HeaderText("Freight").Width("120").Format("C2").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
       col.Field("ShippedDate").HeaderText("Shipped Date").Width("140").Format("yMd").TextAlign(Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.TextAlign.Right).Add();
       col.Field("ShipCountry").HeaderText("Ship Country").Width("150").Add();

   }).AllowPaging().ContextMenuItems(ContextMenuitems).ContextMenuClick("ContextMenuClick").Render()


<script>
function ContextMenuClick(args) {
    if (args.item.id === 'copywithheader') {
        this.copy(true);
    }
}
</script>
public IActionResult Index()
{
    var Order = OrderDetails.GetAllRecords();
    ViewBag.DataSource = Order;
    return View();
}

You can hide or show an item in context menu for specific area inside of grid by defining the Target property.
