Entity Framework Core: Remove Last Migration

Last modified: 04 December 2024

This command removes the last migration, rolling back the code changes that were done for it.

Under the hood, JetBrains Rider will apply the dotnet ef migrations remove command with the corresponding arguments. Make sure that dotnet ef global tool is installed on your machine.

Below is the list of options for the Remove Last Migration command.

Common

Migrations project

The project where the command will be applied. If you have invoked the command from the context menu of a specific project, this project will be preselected.

Startup project

Project to be run when you start your application, containing the entry point or startup logic (like the Main method or Startup.cs in ASP.NET Core). It provides the necessary runtime configuration, dependency injection setup, and configuration context, such as connection strings and service registrations.

DbContext class

DbContext migration class to use for the command. You can choose from available migrations classes in the selected Migrations project.

Build Options

Skip project build process

Use this option when the build is up to date. Although this option reduces the execution time of the command, it may also be a source of potential problems if the project has not been built before running the command.

Build configuration

Build configuration of the startup project, for example, Debug or Release.

Target framework

Target runtime to restore packages for when building the startup project.

Execution

Enable diagnostic logging

Show verbose output if the Execute commands in terminal checkbox is enabled on the Tools | EF Core UI settings page  .

Additional arguments

Any additional arguments to pass to the application.
