Add migration with different assembly

by

All EF commands have this check:

if (targetAssembly != migrationsAssembly) 
       throw MigrationsAssemblyMismatchError;

targetAssembly = the target project you are operating on. On the command line, it is the project in the current working directory. In Package Manager Console, it is whatever project is selected in the drop down box on the top right of that window pane.

migrationsAssembly = assembly containing code for migrations. This is configurable. By default, this will be the assembly containing the DbContext, in your case, Project.Data.dll.
As the error message suggests, you have have a two options to resolve this

1 – Change target assembly.

cd Project.Data/
dotnet ef --startup-project ../Project.Api/ migrations add Initial

// code doesn't use .MigrationsAssembly...just rely on the default
options.UseSqlServer(connection)

2 – Change the migrations assembly.

cd Project.Api/
dotnet ef migrations add Initial

// change the default migrations assembly
options.UseSqlServer(connection, b => b.MigrationsAssembly("Project.Api"))
