Asp.Net Core – upload file to database with ajax – Jquery ajax

I am trying to upload a file, send it to the controller with ajax and save it in the database. Without Ajax, it is working perfectly, but when I submit the code with ajax in the controller I get a 0 result and cannot save the files into the DB.

Here is my code:
View:

<form method="post" id="uploadForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" asp-action="UploadFile">
      
                <div class="k-content">
                    @(Html.Kendo().Upload()
                    .Name("files")
                    .Multiple(true)
                    .Messages(m=>m.Select("Select"))
                    .Validation(validation => validation
                    .AllowedExtensions(new string [] { ".doc", ".docx", ".pdf", ".txt"})
                    .MaxFileSize(5242880)
                    )
                    .HtmlAttributes(new { aria_label = "files"})

                    )
                    <p style="padding-top: 1em; text-align: right">
                        <button type="submit" id="uploadfile" class="btn btn-outline-primary rounded-pill">Upload</button>
                    </p>
                </div>
            </form>

The ajax call:

        $("#uploadfile").click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();

        var fileUpload = $("#addfile").data("kendoUpload"),
            files = fileUpload.getFiles();

        var filedata = new FormData();
        
        for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
            filedata.append(files[i].name, files[i]);
        }

        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: '@Url.Action("UploadFile")',
            contentType: false,
            processData: false,
            data: filedata,
            success: function (message) {
                alert(message);
            },
            error: function (xhr, status, error) {
                alert(error);
            },
        });

    });

And the controller, which works fine without ajax, but when data is submitted with Ajax, I get 0 result for the filedata

 [HttpPost]
    public async Task<IActionResult> UploadFile(IEnumerable<IFormFile> filedata)
    {
        foreach (var f in filedata)
        {
            if (f != null)
        {
            if (f.Length > 0)
            {
                var fileName = Path.GetFileName(f.FileName);
                var fileExtension = Path.GetExtension(fileName);

                var objfiles = new FileUpload
                {
                    FileName = fileName,
                    FileType = fileExtension,
                    FileSize = f.Length,
                    CretedOn = DateTime.UtcNow,
                };
                using (var target = new MemoryStream())
                {
                    f.CopyTo(target);
                    objfiles.FileData = target.ToArray();
                }
                _context.FileUploads.Add(objfiles);
            }
        }
            else
            {
                return Ok(false);
            }
        }
        await _context.SaveChangesAsync();
        return Ok(true);
   }
