how i can get TABLES COLUMNS NAMES dynamically? in this case id and name

Answer 1

something like this

headers=[ i[0] for i in result.cursor.description ]

same question here return column names from pyodbc execute() statement

Answer 2

You can either find the columns by calling result.keys() or you can access them through calling v.keys() inside the for loop.

Here's an example using items():

for v in result:
    for column, value in v.items():
        print('{0}: {1}'.format(column, value))
