applicationsettings.json usage ?

Question

User722039657 posted

Hi,

I am using Asp.Net Core 3.1 and can see the file appsettings.json.

Can I use more than one application settings file like "appsettings.json", "appsettings.Development.json", "appsettings.Staging.json" & "appsettings.Production.json"?

If yes, could you please explain the steps and json file order, if any?

Thanks in advance.
