A condition_id is the identifier for a market's underlying condition in the Conditional Tokens Framework. Every distinct market — including every individual cycle of a recurring Up/Down market — has its own condition_id, which is how a bot addresses the correct market at runtime.
Because a new cycle is a new condition, the condition_id must be looked up each cycle rather than stored in configuration. This is the most common reason a working bot silently stops trading: it is still pointed at a market that resolved hours ago.
Putting it in a config file. It is per-market and, on recurring markets, per-cycle — it has to be resolved at runtime every time.
