How to load appsetting.json section into Dictionary in .NET Core?

Question

I am familiar w/ loading an appsettings.json section into a strongly typed object in .NET Core startup.cs. For example:

public class CustomSection 
{
   publ

Go with this structure format:

"MobileConfigInfo": {
    "Values": {
       "appointment-confirmed": "We've booked your appointment. See you soon!",
       "appointments-book": "New Appointment",
       "appointments-null": "We could not locate any upcoming appointments for you.",
       "availability-null": "Sorry, there are no available times on this date. Please try another."
 }
}

Make your setting class look like this:

public class CustomSection 
{
   public Dictionary Values {get;set;}
}

then do this

services.Configure((settings) =>
{
     Configuration.GetSection("MobileConfigInfo").Bind(settings);
});
