To whom it may concern,
I think there is an issue with the get_header_value method:

ariadne-codegen/ariadne_codegen/settings.py

Line 246 in 8bc4388

env_var_prefix = "$"

In particular, the value.startswith won't work in case you have the following type of config for oauth2:
remote_schema_headers = {"Authorization" = "Bearer $AUTH_TOKEN"} # extra headers that are passed along with introspection query

As a workaround you can do something like
export BEARER_AUTH_TOKEN="Bearer $AUTH_TOKEN" and use the variable $BEARER_AUTH_TOKEN instead.

~~Another alternative is to extend the BaseClient and set the header yourself, this is what I've done.~~

proposed naive version:

def get_header_value(value: str) -> str:
    env_var_prefix = "$"
    l_keys = value.strip().split(sep=" ")
    compiled_keys = []
    for key in l_keys:
        token_pos = key.rfind(env_var_prefix)
        if token_pos >= 0 and token_pos<len(key)-1:
            env_var_name = key[token_pos+1:]
            var_value = os.environ.get(env_var_name)
            if not var_value:
                raise InvalidConfiguration(
                    f"Environment variable {env_var_name} not found."
                )
            else:
                key = key[:token_pos] + var_value
        compiled_keys.append(key)
    return " ".join(compiled_keys)

@bombsimon solution is the way to do it. We could add the note in the docs that we are not doing any complex parsing on setting values.

@bombsimon This utility is used only for headers attached to remote schema introspection query (remote_schema_headers config option). Extending BaseClient won't have an effect here, so 1st approach with export ... is the way to do it.

Ok good for me, I will close the issue

Header environment placeholder not compatible with oauth2
