Overview

Availability: EF Core 7
By default, EF Core tracks changes to entities and sends updates to the database with SaveChanges{Async}. Sometimes it may be useful to execute update and/or delete commands on the database without involving the change tracker. EF7 enables this with ExecuteUpdate{Async} and ExecuteDelete{Async} methods.

ExecuteUpdate{Async} and ExecuteDelete{Async} are applied to a LINQ query and will update or delete entities in the database.

These methods complement—not replace—the existing SaveChanges{Async} methods.
