Answer 1

For those having the same problem as Luís Bianchin, "TypeError: 'str' object is not callable", I found a solution (that works for me at least) here.

imp_vals = xgb.booster().get_fscore()

to

imp_vals = xgb.get_fscore()

worked for me.

For more detail I would recommend visiting the link above.

Big thanks to David and ianozsvald
