JPA – Returning an auto generated id after persist()

by

The ID is only guaranteed to be generated at flush time. Persisting an entity only makes it “attached” to the persistence context. So, either flush the entity manager explicitely:

em.persist(abc);
em.flush();
return abc.getId();

or return the entity itself rather than its ID. When the transaction ends, the flush will happen, and users of the entity outside of the transaction will thus see the generated ID in the entity.

@Override
public ABC addNewABC(ABC abc) {
    abcDao.insertABC(abc);
    return abc;
}
