Creating the Data Model

There are two approaches to creating the context and entity classes for your application. Using the Code-First Approach approach, you can fine-tune your model by writing the classes manually. Alternatively, you can use Reverse Engineering (Scaffolding) to generate these classes automatically from your Mailchimp schema.

Perform LINQ Commands in Your Code

After EF Core is set up and the Mailchimp provider is registered, you can begin querying your data with LINQ:

using System.Linq;
using MySolutionName.Models;

MailChimpContext ents = new MailChimpContext();
var ListsQuery = from Lists in ents.Lists
                   orderby Lists.Contact_Company
                   select Lists;
