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 Tableau CRM schema.

Perform LINQ Commands in Your Code

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

using System.Linq;
using MySolutionName.Models;

TableauCRMContext ents = new TableauCRMContext();
var Dataset_OpportunityQuery = from Dataset_Opportunity in ents.Dataset_Opportunity
                   orderby Dataset_Opportunity.CloseDate
                   select Dataset_Opportunity;
