How to get selected header label from QTableWidget item?

I have a QTableWidget item. I fill this item with pandas DataFrame data. I must print selected column values as a report. I can easily print data from DataFrame. However, I need to know verticalHeader (QTableWidget) labels to get data from 'DataFrame'. How can I get selected header labels from QTableWidget?

I tried QTableWidget.selectionModel().selectedIndexes() and QTableWidget.itemFromIndex() method. I could only get items inside of the table not header labels.

Here is my table. I can get items under 'Product No', 'Product Option' and 'List Price (USD)' headers but I can't get these headers.

You can use QTableWidget.verticalHeaderItem() with the table's current row. If the selected cells are all in the same row, you could do this (table refers to the QTableWidget).

row = table.currentRow()
label = table.verticalHeaderItem(row).text()

Or if cells are selected over multiple rows:

rows = set(cell.row() for cell in table.selectedIndexes()) # set to remove duplicates, otherwise use a list
labels = [table.verticalHeaderItem(r).text() for r in rows]

In the case that a row does not contain a vertical header item, use the text() method only after you've checked that item returned is not None.

headers = [table.verticalHeaderItem(r) for r in rows]
labels = [x.text() for x in headers if x is not None]

Edit: Those are horizontal header items, not vertical. In that case use table.horizontalHeaderItem() instead and get cell columns.
