How to access secrets json and bind to a class?

If i have secret called Config and in it plain:

{
  "ConectionStrings": {

    "UserDb": "...."
  }
}

.ConfigureServices((hostContext, services) =>

  services.AddOptions<DataAccessOptions>().Bind(hostContext.Configuration);
)

Where DataAccessOptions is a class with:

public class DataAccessOptions
    {
        public ConfigOptions Config { get; set; }

        public class ConfigOptions
        {
            public DataAccessConnectionString ConnectionStrings { get; set; }
        }

        public class DataAccessConnectionString
        {
            public string UserDb { get; set; }

        }
}

As far as I can tell this does not work.

This does not work as well.

var options = new DataAccessOptions(); hostContext.Configuration.GetSection("Config").Bind(options);

this does not work hostContext.Configuration.GetSection("Config");

Only thing that works is:

hostContext.Configuration.GetValue<string>("Config:ConnectionStrings:UserDb");

And that kind of is not a way. Imagine i got N of stuff in secret. Then I have to initiate class and fill in all of that stuff manually like:

var options = new DataAccessOptions {
     Config = new ConfigOptions {
        ConnectionStrings = new DataAccessConnectionString {
             UserDb = hostContext.Configuration.GetValue<string>("Config:ConnectionStrings:UserDb");
             // and N other stuff in here
        }
     }

}

Is there a way to bind secrets to a class and not to do that get one at the time.

On Azure when you define secret "Config:ConnectionStrings:UserDb" syntax is recognised like section on you can unpack in one line of code.
