Execute SQL command in Entity Framework Core 2.0 to delete all data in a table

Ensure that you reference Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore to include all the necessary extension methods that would allow you to execute raw SQL commands.

From the source repository I found ExecuteSqlCommand and related extension methods

int count = await context.Database.ExecuteSqlCommandAsync("DELETE FROM [Blogs]");

Found an article that suggested using ADO.Net.

First you grab a connection from the context, create a command and execute that.

using (var connection = context.Database.GetDbConnection()) {
    await connection.OpenAsync();     
    using (var command = connection.CreateCommand()) {
        command.CommandText = "DELETE FROM [Blogs]";
        var result = await command.ExecuteNonQueryAsync();
    }
}
