Session: How to Get Entity Change-Vector

• The change-vector reflects the cluster-wide point in time in which a change occured, and includes the unique database ID, node identifier, and document Etag in the specific node.
• When a document is downloaded from the server, it contains various metadata information.
  E.g. ID or current change-vector.
• The current change-vector is stored within the session metadata and is available for each entity using the GetChangeVectorFor method from the Advanced session operations.

Syntax

string GetChangeVectorFor<T>(T instance);

Example

Employee employee = session.Load<Employee>("employees/1-A");
string changeVector = session.Advanced.GetChangeVectorFor(employee);
