+## Read instrumentation configuration programmatically
+
+Starting with version 2.30.0, the OpenTelemetry Spring Boot Starter exposes a `ConfigProvider`
+Spring bean. The [`ReadInstrumentationConfig`](./src/main/java/io/opentelemetry/examples/fileconfig/ReadInstrumentationConfig.java)
+component demonstrates how application code can inject this bean and read instrumentation
+configuration.
+
+`ConfigProvider#getInstrumentationConfig()` returns the `instrumentation/development` configuration
+tree. This example walks through `java.common.db.query_sanitization` and reads the `enabled` value,
+defaulting to `true` when it is not configured. The same tree is used whether the setting comes from
+an `otel.instrumentation.*` property or the equivalent declarative YAML configuration.
+
 ## Declarative vs Programmatic Configuration
 
 Declarative configuration, as used in this example, allows you to express routing and sampling rules
