TypeError: 'Secrets' object is not callable

Folder structure of where I keep my secrets.toml file + the contents of my secrets.toml file:

secrets_structure
secrets_structure1311×259 12.6 KB

How I am calling and trying to retrieve the secrets:

import streamlit as st

api = st.secrets("fred_API_key")

print(api)

I figured it. It’s odd but I was able to access the API Key by using the attribute notation instead of the key notation.

What worked:

api = st.secrets.fred_API_key

What didn’t work:

api = st.secrets("fred_API_key")

Key notation would be api = st.secrets["fred_API_key"]. See the examples in the documentation.
