How to get controller and action name in OnActionExecuting?

Question

Is it possible to figure out the currently executing controller/action in OnActionExecuting?

Answer 1

You could try the ActionDescriptor of the ActionExecutingContext as follows:

protected override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext) {    string actionName = filterContext.ActionDescriptor.ActionName;    string controllerName = filterContext.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName    .....    base.OnActionExecuting(filterContext); }
