What is the difference between using Include and ThenInclude in a query?
- Include is for first-level navigation properties
- Include is for loading nested navigation properties
- Include loads all related entities
- ThenInclude is for loading additional nested entities
Include is used to load first-level navigation properties in a query. It eagerly loads related entities. ThenInclude, on the other hand, is used to include nested navigation properties, allowing for loading additional levels of related entities in a query. This is useful when navigating through multiple levels of relationships in Entity Framework.
