How to scan and auto-configure profiles in AutoMapper?

Question

Is there any way to auto-configue Automapper to scan for all profiles in namespace/assembly? What I would like to do is to add mapping profiles to AutoMapper from given asse

I found this post while searching as well, but this is how I implemented an auto mapping scheme:

public class MyCustomMap : Profile
{
    protected override void Configure()
    {
        CreateMap()
            .ForMember(dest => dest.Phone,
                        opt => opt.MapFrom(
                        src => src.PhoneAreaCode + src.PhoneFirstThree + src.PhoneLastFour));
    }
}

public static class AutoMapperConfiguration
{
    public static void Configure()
    {
        Mapper.Initialize(x => GetConfiguration(Mapper.Configuration));
    }

    private static void GetConfiguration(IConfiguration configuration)
    {
        var profiles = typeof(MyCustomMap).Assembly.GetTypes().Where(x => typeof(Profile).IsAssignableFrom(x));
        foreach (var profile in profiles)
        {
            configuration.AddProfile(Activator.CreateInstance(profile) as Profile);
        }
    }
}

So when my application starts, all I call is

AutoMapperConfiguration.Configure(); 

And all my maps are registered.
