You are tasked to catch all unhandled exceptions globally in your ASP.NET Core MVC application. Which approach would be most suitable to achieve this?

  • Use the try...catch block in every action method.
  • Configure global exception handling in the Startup.cs file using app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error").
