Multiple post Method in single API Controller

Question

Dear all,
I am Begineer in MVC 5 and Angular 6 in which I am developing one web application.
There is one angular component(web page) - User.html and User.ts where I am trying to save data  in two tables separately i.e. and .
On angular component(web page) i.e. User.html and User.ts, I have separate button to save User header data in table and there is button which opens popup window to save User details data in table.
I am passing data from Angular component to APIcontroller in MVC 5(UserController.cs).
On UserController.cs, I have two POST methods i.e. one for Header and another for Details
UserController.cs

Hi Ninad,   Please change the namings of two Post methods .  We can provide any name but place the prefix with "Post____" For Ex : "PostEmpData" & "Post" considers both as post methods, But PostEmpData is meaningful.   Finally what I can suggest is change your "post" method names in appropriate manner.   For more info follow the below URL gives more clarity.   https://www.tutorialsteacher.com/webapi/web-api-controller   Please mark as accepted answer, If it helps. Thank you.
