Hi Sudarshan,

After creating the EF data model, verify there is a second constructor for creating a DbContext accepting string argument - EntityDataSource Component. This constructor will be used on configuring EntityDataSource components to use the EF model. The EntityDataSource Wizard will pass the specified connection string to the DbContext constructor and will execute the selected data-retrieval method - EntityDataSource Wizard. The specified connection string must be valid, allowing the EF model to be loaded with data from the database specified in the connection string.

Let us know if you need any further help.
