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 Zoho Creator schema.

Perform LINQ Commands in Your Code

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

using System.Linq;
using MySolutionName.Models;

ZohoCreatorContext ents = new ZohoCreatorContext();
var Leave_TypesQuery = from Leave_Types in ents.Leave_Types
                   orderby Leave_Types.Leave_Type
                   select Leave_Types;
