i want execute both post , method in different scenario. how it?

there 2 ways achieve

• specify different input parameters methods same http method (httpget/ httpost/httpput).

example -

 [httpget]       public string test1(string input)       {           return "this test1 string";       }  [httpget]   public string test2()   {       return "this test2 string";   } 

• specify explicit different routes each of method in controller using multiple httpget.

  [httpget] [route("~/mycontroller/action")] public string test1(string input) { return "this test1 string"; }

   [httpget]     [route("~/mycontroller/action2")]     public string test2()     {       return "this test2 string";     }
