Using an existing container

var builder = new ContainerBuilder();
builder.RegisterInstance(new MyService());
var container = builder.Build();
endpointConfiguration.UseContainer<AutofacBuilder>(
    customizations: customizations =>
    {
        customizations.ExistingLifetimeScope(container);
    });

DependencyLifecycle mapping

DependencyLifecycle maps to Autofac instance scopes as follows:

DependencyLifecycleAutofac instance scope
