How can I convert my appsettings.json section to an object?

I have an appsettings.json that looks like this:

{
    "Logging": {
        "LogLevel": {
            "Default": "Information",
            "Microsoft": "Warning",
            "Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime": "Information"
        }
    },
    "AllowedHosts": "*",
    "SearchExclusions": {
        "Classifications": {
            "title": "My First Title",
            "entries": [ "ALPHA", "BETA" ]
        },
        "SubjectContains": {
            "title": "My Second Title",
            "entries": [ "GAMMA", "DELTA", "EPSILON", "ZETA", "ETA", "THETA", "IOTA", "KAPPA" ]
        }
    }
}

My .RAZOR component looks like this:

@inject IConfiguration Configuration
<h1> My Component </h1>
@code {
    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        // This does not work.
        var searchExclusionsObject = Configuration.GetSection("SearchExclusions").Get<SearchExclusions>();

        // This also does not work.
        var searchExclusionsObject = Configuration.Get<SearchExclusions>();
    }

    private class SearchExclusions
    {
        private Classifications classifications { get; set; }
        private SubjectContains subjectContains { get; set; }
    }

    private class Classifications
    {
        private String title { get; set; }
        private String[] entries { get; set; }
    }

    private class SubjectContains
    {
        private String title { get; set; }
        private String[] entries { get; set; }
    }
}

Absolutely, it's just the accessibility of your properties that needs to be changed from Private to Public

All your properties on SearchExclusions and other child classes are private, they need to be public.
