Add a connection string to appsettings.json
In appsettings.json, we can use the ConnectionStrings object to add a key/value property with a connection string.
This allows us to connect our ASP.NET Core web app to a SQL Server database.
We have this connection string that we wish to add to our ASP.NET Core app.
Server=localhost; Database=MyDatabase; Trusted_Connection=true; Trust Server Certificate=true; MultipleActiveResultSets=true; Integrated Security=true;
Our appsettings.json file looks like this:
{
"Logging": {
"LogLevel": {
"Default": "Information",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore": "Warning"
}
},
"AllowedHosts": "*"
}
How would we add this connection string to the appsettings.json file with a MyDatabaseDbContext
key?
