You must ensure that your key property is mapped with StoreGeneratedPattern.Identity (here you can find some more about this setting). This should be used as default when generating the model from MS SQL database where the key column is defined with IDENTITY. After that it is enough to call SaveChanges on the context and the key property will be automatically filled for you.
