Audit.EntityFramework: Old and new value are always the same

Hi!

I´m using Audit.EntityFramework and on log output the old and new values for changed entity are always the same!

My config on statup.cs:

Audit.Core.Configuration.Setup().UseSqlServer(c => {
                c.ConnectionString(Configuration.GetConnectionString("audit.db"));
                c.Schema("dbo");
                c.TableName("Event");
                c.IdColumnName("EventId");
                c.JsonColumnName("Data");
                c.LastUpdatedColumnName("LastUpdatedDate");
                
            });

            Audit.EntityFramework.Configuration.Setup()
                .ForAnyContext(x => x.IncludeEntityObjects(true)
                                     .AuditEventType("{context}:{database}"))
                .UseOptOut();

Thankyou for the library and support!

I don’t think this is related to this library, you could reuse that code just by adding a method on your DbContext like:

public int AttachUpdateEntity(object entityToUpdate)
{
    var entry = this.Attach(entityToUpdate); // Attach to the DbContext
    var updated = entry.CurrentValues.Clone();
    entry.Reload();
    entry.CurrentValues.SetValues(updated);
    entry.State = EntityState.Modified;
    return this.SaveChanges();
}

The configuration in applicable by DbContext, not by controller. You can do enable it globally (for any context) with the following code in your startup:

Audit.EntityFramework.Configuration.Setup()
    .ForAnyContext(config => config
        .ReloadDatabaseValues(true));
