Entity Framework does not update Foreign Key object

Question

I\'m new to Entity Framework and this behavior confuses me:

    [Table(\"ClinicProfile\")]
    public class ClinicProfile
    {
        [Key]
        [Databa         


        

Answer 1

You just need to set ContactDataId, when updating

clinicProfile.ContactData = contactData;
clinicProfile.ContactDataId = contactData.Id;
SharedContext.Current.Entry(clinicProfile).State = EntityState.Modified;
SharedContext.Current.SaveChanges();
