Answer 1

See flow below:

ActionFilter can be used for additional manipulations on action arguments and results. ResultFilter is processed only if an action was executed with success, and can be used, for example, to modify results which have to be displayed.

Examples you can find here: https://docs.microsoft.com/aspnet/core/mvc/controllers/filters?view=aspnetcore-3.1
