Error: Unsupported block type

  on .terraform/modules/s3-state/s3/main.tf line 17, in resource "aws_s3_bucket" "state":
  17:   tags {

Blocks of type "tags" are not expected here. Did you mean to define argument
"tags"? If so, use the equals sign to assign it a value.

I have a couple of questions about how you all intended this module to be used. I have an existing Terraform definition with an existing state for two workspaces: default and development.

terraform {
  backend "s3" {
    encrypt        = true
    bucket         = "app-terraform-remote-state-storage-s3"
    dynamodb_table = "app-terraform-remote-state-lock-dynamo"
    region         = "us-west-2"
    key            = "terraform.tfstate"
  }
}

Is the expectation that I'd add this as a module, change the bucket and dynamodb_table values to match module.s3.bucket_id and module.s3.locktable_id and all would be fine? Or is there some other expected workflow? e.g.

diff --git a/main.tf b/main.tf

   }
 }

The reason I ask is that it seems to be a bit of a chicken and egg scenario. I need these resources before I can provision my environment so I can store state and yet it is will be part of the environment too.

Also, what is the expected way to handle multiple workspaces? It seems like switching workspaces will cause the environment to try and reprovision the state storage resources.
