Are there any events before starting the controller?

I know that there are events before / after the start of the action.

Is there anything higher on the stack like before calling the controller?

There is no such thing as starting a controller. Controllers do not start. These are the classes that are created and the action (methods) is called on them.

You can decorate your action with the special attribute [ActionFilter] , in which you can override OnActionExecuting , which is called before the controller action is called. This method also allows you to better understand the problems.

ASP.Net MVC still works through the HttpApplication pipeline, so you can still handle any events from BeginRequest to PreRequestHandlerExecute by adding handlers to Global.asax.

Many application life cycle events can be processed in the Global.asax file.
