What are the different entity states?

EF Core uses these EntityState values:

State Description

Added New entity to be inserted into the database

Modified Entity has been changed and will be updated

Deleted Entity will be deleted from the database

Detached Entity is not tracked by the context

Unchange

No changes have been made since it was

loaded

You can check/set the state via:

context.Entry(entity).State = EntityState.Modified;
