Entity Framework auto generate GUID

Question

I am new to EF so here goes.I have a class which contains the following

public class EmailTemplate
{
    public Guid Id { get; set; }

    [MaxLength(2000)]
             


        

Answer 1

I prefer to leave the database to generate the id automatically for example the following schema:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTable](
    [MyId] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_Booking_BookingId]  DEFAULT (newsequentialid())
    )

Then in the code first mapping I specify the following to tell Entity Framework that the database will take care of generating the value on insert.

Property(a => a.MyId).IsRequired().HasDatabaseGeneratedOption(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity);
