Find the execution flow of the actual code when an API is called

Is it possible to call an api such as "localhost/calculate" using PostMan and find out which classes or methods are called in order?

It would be like (GetCalculateResult(), Calculate.cs) -> (MathLogic(), Math.cs) and etc?

I want to know the way so it will be easier when I'm trying to understand how others codes work.

Thank you in advance!

    If you can attach the debugger to the web site, then you can follow the logic. If you have the source code you could follow the logic. Otherwise no.
