Solution 1

You could change your code and use GetMethods() instead of GetMethod, filter the results by your actionName, and then manage both cases (for both attributes: HttpGet and HttpPost).

GetMethods() returns an array of type MethodInfo, so you have to filter the items from this array then to use the property of them (like item.ReturnType).
