Request headers gives TypeError: 'EnvironHeaders' object is not callable

I have this code which doesn't work, and keeps getting me this error:

TypeError: 'EnvironHeaders' object is not callable

The Code is:

@app.route('/auth', methods=['GET'])
def auth():
    return request.headers.get('x-authorization')

As my code explains, am i trying to get the header called: x-authorization, from an incoming request. It is a STS token that is coming in. Im using flask and importet request from flask

Headers in flask, request.headers.get is a dictionary. Hence it is supposed to be accessed as request.headers['x-authorization']

Using curly braces makes it a function call like foo(). You need to use [] instead of ()
