Entity Framework Core dbContext 拒绝更改后的行为

Question

I have a C# .NET Core API project with Entity Framework. In one of these APIs, there is a specific case where I need to abort the change I was making in my db context and then save other different data in my database.

I found and edited the code a little to do this:

public void RejectChanges()
{
    var ChangeTracker = new Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.ChangeTracking.ChangeTracker(_context);
    foreach (var entry in ChangeTracker.Entries())
    {
        switch (entry.State)
        {
            case EntityState.Modified:
            case EntityState.Deleted:
                entry.State = EntityState.Modified; //Revert changes made to deleted entity.
                entry.State = EntityState.Unchanged;
                break;
            case EntityState.Added:
                entry.State = EntityState.Detached;
                break;
        }
    }
}

It seems to work, but I have a very big doubt: if another API is going to save its own data, does this operation affect also its data, rejecting also those changes? Or, as I wish, does it affect only the API session that called this method?

EXAMPLE: API 1 edits some data in the context, then calls the RejectChanges method. Meanwhile, the API 2 edits other data and it's going to save. Does RejectChanges , called from API 1 reject also the edits made by API 2?

The Change Tracker is scoped to a single DbContext, which should be scoped to a single API request. Also you don't create a new ChangeTracker. The DbContext already has one.

var ChangeTracker = _context.ChangeTracker;
