How can I use template in headers.

I want to use token into header, but It should be dynamic means I am getting token in the response of login API and I am storing into variable. I want to use this token into header. How can I do this? I tried template but it doesn't work. see below my code.


- config:
    - testset: "Benchmark tests using test app"
    # Variables to use in the test set
    - variable_binds: { email: 'lucky@yopmail.com',
    email2: 'abc12@gmail.com',
    email3: 'pqr@gmail.com',
    email4: 'qwed@gmail.com',
    password: 'abc123',
    user_id: 123,
    token: 'Token 4cc1e782b6c50d91dcd269749a9c2faec2c296f',
    group_name: 'group_my_third'}

- test:
    - group: "UserLogin"
    - name: "User Login using email and password"
    - url: "api/v2/login/"
    - method: "POST"
    - body: {template: '{"email": "$email","password": "$password","device_os": "android", "device_token": "abcxyz"}'}
    - headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
    - expected_status: [200]
    - extract_binds:
        - 'user_id': {'jsonpath_mini': 'id'}
        - 'token': {'jsonpath_mini': 'token'}

- test:
    - group: "Group"
    - name: "Create group"
    - url: {'template': "api/v2/users/$user_id/groups/"}
    - method: "POST"
    - body: {template: '{"name": "$group_name"}'}
    - headers: {template: '{"Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": "$token"}'}
    - expected_status: [400]

I am getting below error stack.

  File "resttest.py", line 934, in <module>

    return dict(map(template_tuple, self._headers.items()))
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'items'

How can I solve this?
