Minimal API with Individual Accounts and read appconfig

I have a .NET 8 Blazor solution. In the server project, I added some Minimal APIs protected with individual accounts (just using the Visual Studio template).

For example:

public static void MapClientEndpoints (this IEndpointRouteBuilder routes){    var group = routes.MapGroup("/api/Client").WithTags(nameof(Client));    group.MapGet("/", async (HypnoContext db) =>    {        return await db.Client.ToListAsync();    })    .RequireAuthorization()    .WithName("GetAllClients")    .WithOpenApi();}

Also, in the server side, I configure the IHttpClientFactory like this:

builder.Services    .AddScoped(sp => sp        .GetRequiredService<IHttpClientFactory>()        .CreateClient("ServerAPI"))        .AddHttpClient("ServerAPI", (provider, client) =>        {#if DEBUG            client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://localhost:7241");#else            client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://myrealurl");#endif        });

In the client project, I added the same configuration for IHttpClientFactory. If I call from a page the API via HttpClient, the call successfully retrieves the data.

Now, I want to use different configuration for each environment. For this reason, I created different appsettings files (appsettings.Development.json, appsettings.Production.json, ...).

To load those settings, I added this code:

IHostbuilder.Environmentuilder.Environment;builder.Configuration    .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)    .AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", true, true);

Adding this code, the calls to the APIs are not authenticated any more. In the appsettings.json, there is no configuration for the IHttpClientFactory.

What can I do to fix this issue?
