| AddAsync(Object, CancellationToken) |
Begins tracking the given entity, and any other reachable entities that are not already being tracked, in the Added state such that they will be inserted into the database when SaveChanges() is called. |
| AddAsync<TEntity>(TEntity, CancellationToken) |
Begins tracking the given entity, and any other reachable entities that are not already being tracked, in the Added state such that they will be inserted into the database when SaveChanges() is called. |
AddAsync(Object, CancellationToken)
Begins tracking the given entity, and any other reachable entities that are not already being tracked, in the Added state such that they will be inserted into the database when SaveChanges() is called.

- entity
- Object
The entity to add.
- cancellationToken
- CancellationToken
A CancellationToken to observe while waiting for the task to complete.
Returns
A task that represents the asynchronous Add operation. The task result contains the EntityEntry for the entity. The entry provides access to change tracking information and operations for the entity.
Exceptions
If the CancellationToken is canceled.
Remarks
Use State to set the state of only a single entity.
This method is async only to allow special value generators, such as the one used by 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.SqlServerValueGenerationStrategy.SequenceHiLo', to access the database asynchronously. For all other cases the non async method should be used.
Entity Framework Core does not support multiple parallel operations being run on the same DbContext instance. This includes both parallel execution of async queries and any explicit concurrent use from multiple threads. Therefore, always await async calls immediately, or use separate DbContext instances for operations that execute in parallel. See Avoiding DbContext threading issues for more information and examples.
