How to upload files to elasticbeanstalk for app configuration?

I have a nodejs app in elasticbeanstalk, and I need to configure an external service with a json config file.

To configure the app I need to set and env variable that has the path to the configuration file. For example...

export SERVICE_CREDENTIALS_PATH="/home/user/config.json"

How can I upload the config.json file to elasticbeanstalk and have it there for every new version of the app deployed?

Elastic Beanstalk extracts your application source bundle to /var/app/current. If you include the file (config.json) in the root of your application, then you should be able to set SERVICE_CREDENTIALS_PATH to /var/app/current/config.json.
