Recently, I was creating a terraform module that creates an S3 bucket. An S3 bucket can only have one aws_s3_bucket_policy, and the module needed to include a default policy to force TLS v1.2. I also needed to be able to pass additional policy statements to the module which may or may not include a condition. Unfortunately, there is not an obvious way to include the condition only when it is part of the policy. This post shows how you can include a nested dynamic condition block when the block exists, and exclude it if it doesn't.

In this post I explore how to login to Hashicorp Vault using OIDC. I wanted to be able to automate some interactions with Vault that the official vault cli does not easily support. To do so I needed to be able to run the equivalent of `vault login -method=oidc`. This post is the result of that.
