Entity Framework - Include Multiple Levels of Properties

Solution 1:

For EF 6

using System.Data.Entity;

query.Include(x => x.Collection.Select(y => y.Property))

Make sure to add using System.Data.Entity; to get the version of Include that takes in a lambda.

For EF Core

Use the new method ThenInclude

query.Include(x => x.Collection)
     .ThenInclude(x => x.Property);

Solution 2:

If I understand you correctly you are asking about including nested properties. If so :

.Include(x => x.ApplicationsWithOverrideGroup.NestedProp)

or

.Include("ApplicationsWithOverrideGroup.NestedProp")  

or

.Include($"{nameof(ApplicationsWithOverrideGroup)}.{nameof(NestedProp)}")
