NestJS · Middle · Question 74 of 75

Interceptors are bound globally, on a controller and on a route. In what order does their 'after' logic run?

1In random order
2Global first, then controller, then route
✓Correct answer: In reverse: route-level first, then controller, then global, because each wraps the inner ones

Explanation

Before the handler they run global → controller → route; the response flows back out through the same layers in reverse.
