Custom Nginx config not being included?

Question

I have a directory structure like so, and I want that Nginx partial to be included, but it looks like Nginx by default looks in **/etc/nginx/conf.d**, which  
  
.platform/   
- hooks   
- nginx   
-- conf.d  
--- 01_proxy.conf  
  
Is it a naming convention thing? The docs aren't super clear. I'm just setting the locations to forward traffic to my React front-end server and Node back-end. I was able to do it manually but I'd rather it be fool-proof against restarting/redeploying.

The highest rated answer looks like a likely solution for AL2: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61333676/how-to-extend-nginx-config-in-elastic-beanstalk-amazon-linux-2  
  
Basically, for location blocks use this: **.platform/nginx/conf.d/elasticbeanstalk/location.conf**  
  
EDIT: Yup, that did the trick, and since 00_application.conf is generated by elastic beanstalk and has its own default `/` location block, I decided to remove that with a predeploy hook.
