C# AWS Parameter Store - Configuration not loading SystemManagerConfiguration in .Net 6

Question

Application is not able to talk to AWS Parameter Store in .NET 6. It is always talking to appsettings.json.

I tried debugging locally, still same behavior. Not able to find the SystemManagerConfiguration under list of configuration .

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder();
var connectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("OrderTrackerDatabase");

Answer 1

WebApplication.CreateBuilder() will create new instance and doesn't carry over the SystemManager configuration.

Instead, use IConfiguration instance through constructor DI.

 var connectionString = _configuration.GetConnectionString("OrderTrackerDatabase");
