AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'sign'

Question

When I run my python script, it gives me the following error. Not sure how to resolve it. I think so either the problem is in the version of python, I am using python 3.6 or It could be some packages not included. Please see the included image for error. Thanks. Error

Code:

f = open('c:\ExamCreator\My Project-9352ed298182.json') 
        key = f.read()
        f.close()                                                                             
        credentials = ServiceAccountCredentials(
             'CLIENT_EMAIL', key, 
             scope=
             'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user', 
             sub='[email protected]'
        )
        http = httplib2.Http()
        http = credentials.authorize(http)                                           
        userinfo = {
            'primaryEmail': '[email protected]',
            'name': { 
                'givenName':'John','familyName':'Smith' 
            },
            'password': 'Hello1'
        }
        service = build("admin", "directory_v1", http=http)
        service.users().insert(body=userinfo).execute()

do you have a variable called signer declared and assigned to a string? — JacobIRR

It appears that signer is being interpreted as a string, which inherently is just...a string. Not a dict or a list, both of which have attrs. Please post the function that is throwing this error. Also, this SO question and answer may be relevant to your interests.

Thanks for the response, but I am not making explicit calls to the sign method. Its being implicitly called by this code service = build("admin", "directory_v1", http=http)
