Getting error AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'value'

Question

When I do the following:

configKeys = VALIDATION_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION.keys()
print(configKeys)

But when I do this:

keys = [ x.value for x in configKeys ]

I get the following error:

 keys = [ x.value for x in configKeys ]
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'value'

Why is this so? How can I fix this error?

Most of those keys aren't members of your enum. They're just regular strings. — user2357112

I put your question back to it's original state. You edited out so much it was no longer a question and couldn't be answered. — Ethan Furman

Iterating over a dictionary yields its keys (which in your case are strings (str objects)). Strings don't have a value method or attribute.

If you want the values of your dict, you need to iterate over VALIDATION_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION.values() , or if you want both keys and values at the same time, for (k, v) in VALIDATION_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION.items():

Some of the keys are enum members, which do have a value attribute (making likely but not certain guesses about athena.enum.StrEnum).
