How to access EF Core in-memory db from another application?
I have two applications, one is a Web API, and the other is a scheduled job.
Web API
- First I run this service
- There is an entity called 'User'
- I'm adding some fake users using a DB Context called 'ApplicationContext'
- The data will be persisted in an in-memory DB
Scheduled Job service (Background service)
- Now I'm running this service and trying to access the same
DbContext - But I don't see the fake users in the new context
How can I access the data in another application?

Your second application must access the DB via the API on the first. You can't access an in-memory database from another process without doing this.
The good news is, this means the first application enables you to expose higher level features than the bare database. This is mostly the entire purpose of a service.
