 Keep in mind that your service should be registered as scoped or transient to receive updates.
 Also `IOptionsSnapshot` can return empty value in some cases ([it's .net core bug](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/37860))
 
+## Configuration using additional characters for a configuration path
+This will be helpful when you want to flatten the structure of the secrets.
+For example the following two secret objects will evaluate to the same configuration if for the second object the `additionalCharactersForConfigurationPath` option is used with `new []{'.'}` value: 
+```json
+{
+    "secrets":
+    {
+        "DB": 
+        {
+            "ConnectionString": "secret value"
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+```json
+{
+    "secrets":
+    {
+        "DB.ConnectionString": "secret value" 
+    }
+}
+```

+```csharp

 ## Configuration using environmnt variables
 
 Alternatively, you can configure Vault connection using next environmnt variables:
