A null config value for "verification_code" will show a console prompt. This allows Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable to be used directly as config callback.

-There are other configuration items that are queried to your method but returning `null` let WTelegramClient choose a default adequate value. Those shown above are the only ones that have no default values and are required to be provided by your method.
+There are other configuration items that are queried to your method but returning `null` let WTelegramClient choose a default adequate value. Those shown above are the only ones that have no default values and should be provided by your method.
+
+Another simpler approach is to pass `Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable` as the config callback and define the above items as environment variables.
 
 Finally, if you want to redirect the library logs to your logger instead of the Console, you can install a delegate in the `WTelegram.Helpers.Log` static property.
 Its `int` argument is the log severity, compatible with the classic [LogLevel enum](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.extensions.logging.loglevel)
