This is what I used found here I modified it because it didn't work

private object GetPrimaryKeyValue(DbEntityEntry entry)
        {
            var objectStateEntry = ((IObjectContextAdapter)this).ObjectContext.ObjectStateManager.GetObjectStateEntry(entry.Entity);
            object o = objectStateEntry.EntityKey.EntityKeyValues[0].Value;
            return o;
        }

         private bool inExcludeList(string prop)
        {
            string[] excludeList = { "props", "to", "exclude" };
            return excludeList.Any(s => s.Equals(prop));
        }

        public int SaveChanges(User user, string UserId)
        {
            var modifiedEntities = ChangeTracker.Entries()
                .Where(p => p.State == EntityState.Modified).ToList();
            var now = DateTime.Now;

            foreach (var change in modifiedEntities)
            {

                var entityName = ObjectContext.GetObjectType(change.Entity.GetType()).Name;
                var primaryKey = GetPrimaryKeyValue(change);
                var DatabaseValues = change.GetDatabaseValues();

                foreach (var prop in change.OriginalValues.PropertyNames)
                {
                    if(inExcludeList(prop))
                    {
                        continue;
                    }

                    string originalValue = DatabaseValues.GetValue
