I have adapted it a bit to suit my needs, the main thing I did was change the list of Known Types into a class, which is passed into the JsonKnownTypeConverter instead of a list of types. While doing this I’ve also ensured the each known type is tied to its base type.

public class KnownTypeConfiguration : Dictionary<Type, Dictionary>
{
public void Add(Type baseType, string key, Type knownType)
{
if (!baseType.IsAssignableFrom(knownType))
{
throw new InvalidCastException();
}

if(!this.ContainsKey(baseType))
{
this.Add(baseType, new Dictionary());
}

this[baseType][key] = knownType;
}

}
