ASP.NET MVC Controller Lifecycle

ASP.NET MVC Controller will be executed in the following  order:

Every controller action call go through the certain events events. Some of the methods I have listed below.

1) Initialize
Executed at the beginning of action call.

protected override void Initialize(RequestContext requestContext)
{
}

2) On Authorization
Executed at the time of authorizing the action call

protected override void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
{
}

1) On Action Executing
Executed at the time of executing the action just after authorization.

protected override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
{
}
