Adding to @Patrick H McJury's answer.

Here is how it worked for me in a multi container beanstalk environment -

.ebextensions/newrelic.config -

container_commands:
  setup-nr-infra:
    command: |
      NRIA_LICENSE_KEY=$(sudo /opt/elasticbeanstalk/bin/get-config environment | jq -r '.NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY')
      NRIA_DISPLAY_NAME=$(sudo /opt/elasticbeanstalk/bin/get-config environment | jq -r '.APPNAME')
      touch /etc/newrelic-infra.yml && \
      echo "license_key: ${NRIA_LICENSE_KEY}" > /etc/newrelic-infra.yml && \
      echo "display_name: ${NRIA_DISPLAY_NAME}" >> /etc/newrelic-infra.yml && \
      chmod 644 /etc/newrelic-infra.yml
      sudo initctl start newrelic-infra || true

commands:
# Create the agent’s yum repository
  "01-agent-repository":
    command: sudo curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/newrelic-infra.repo https://download.newrelic.com/infrastructure_agent/linux/yum/el/6/x86_64/newrelic-infra.repo
#
# Update your yum cache
  "02-update-yum-cache":
    command: yum -q makecache -y --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo='newrelic-infra'
#
# Run the installation script
  "03-run-installation-script":
    command: sudo yum install newrelic-infra -y

NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY & APPNAME variable must be populated before in beanstalk environment.
