Passing variable to custom controls .NET MAUI

So I'm working on an application that allows the user to create a note and attach it to various entities. Because of this I created the note creation as a ContentView in my .NET MAUI project then I can display it wherever I need it instead of recreating it each time. Is there a way to pass a variable (i.e. contact id from the create contacts page) to the ContentView? 4 days of digging and so far haven't found anything close.

LanHuang I actually did figure it out. The easiest way i found was using MessegeCenter when the button was clicked. I added the model into the message from the view and simply subscribed from the control.
