Answer 1

you can use HttpResponseMessage to create the response like that

var output =  new Result() { Status = Status.Error.ToString(), Data = null, Message = arr };
actionContext.Response = new HttpResponseMessage {
                Content = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(output), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"),
                StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK
            };
