Need example of loading a single navigation property, not collection #2068

Open rgamage opened 4 years ago

The example of loading a collection after getting and inital object is great (Querying Related Entities), but what if you want a related single object, not a collection? I can't figure out the syntax for that case.

Agree, It should be added to the documentation. In case you still need it it's like this:

context.Entry(blog).Reference(p => p.SingleNavigationPropertyOfBlog).Load()
