How to access external .config files?

I have an asp.net mvc site which of course has a web.config file. I also have an external project, which is a class library that uses the .config file for its own application settings. The problem is that when I launch my web application, these parameter values ​​of the external application are not included in the appSettings.

How can I get appSettings values ​​for external class library objects?

You need to either:
 1. Add these settings to the web.config file.
 2. Specify external settings and use the post build event handler to copy the output to your web project.

<configuration>
    <appSettings configSource="my.config" />
</configuration>
