Getting Started with Cosmos DB + EF Core
summary
Shows how to wire Azure Cosmos DB to Entity Framework Core, including the quickstart MVC app that runs with F5 and the local Cosmos DB emulator for offline development. Demonstrates configuring AddEntityFrameworkCosmos/UseCosmos with the endpoint/key, overriding the default container name from the DbContext name, setting per-entity containers and a reflection helper to map DbSets to collections. Covers extracting data with the data migration tool (exports JSON), notes the Entity Framework Cosmos provider is preview/renamed and UDFs must run as JavaScript in the portal.
