# Request Parameters

Here's the reference information for the request parameters.

These are the special functions that you can put in *path operation function* parameters or dependency functions with `Annotated` to get data from the request.

It includes:

* `Query()`
* `Path()`
* `Body()`
* `Cookie()`
* `Header()`
* `Form()`
* `File()`

You can import them all directly from `fastapi`:

```python

In this case, the function parameter `q` will be optional, and will be `None` by default.

/// check

Also notice that **FastAPI** is smart enough to notice that the path parameter `item_id` is a path parameter and `q` is not, so, it's a query parameter.

///

## Query parameter type conversion { #query-parameter-type-conversion }

You can also declare `bool` types, and they will be converted:

# Header Parameter Models { #header-parameter-models }

If you have a group of related **header parameters**, you can create a **Pydantic model** to declare them.

This would allow you to **re-use the model** in **multiple places** and also to declare validations and metadata for all the parameters at once. 😎

/// note

This is supported since FastAPI version `0.115.0`. 🤓

///

# Body - Multiple Parameters { #body-multiple-parameters }

Now that we have seen how to use `Path` and `Query`, let's see more advanced uses of request body declarations.

## Mix `Path`, `Query` and body parameters { #mix-path-query-and-body-parameters }

First, of course, you can mix `Path`, `Query` and request body parameter declarations freely and **FastAPI** will know what to do.

# Query Parameter Models { #query-parameter-models }

If you have a group of **query parameters** that are related, you can create a **Pydantic model** to declare them.

This would allow you to **re-use the model** in **multiple places** and also to declare validations and metadata for all the parameters at once. 😎

/// note

This is supported since FastAPI version `0.115.0`. 🤓

# Cookie Parameters { #cookie-parameters }

You can define Cookie parameters the same way you define `Query` and `Path` parameters.

## Import `Cookie` { #import-cookie }

First import `Cookie`:

{* ../../docs_src/cookie_params/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[3] *}

## Declare `Cookie` parameters { #declare-cookie-parameters }

Then declare the cookie parameters using the same structure as with `Path` and `Query`.

            Objects.equals(ownerClass.getClassName(), that.ownerClass.getClassName()) &&
            Objects.equals(parameters, that.parameters) &&
            Objects.equals(returnType, that.returnType);
    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
        return Objects.hash(super.hashCode(), name, ownerClass, parameters, returnType);
    }

    public ClassMetaData getOwnerClass() {
        return ownerClass;
    }

# Header Parameters { #header-parameters }

You can define Header parameters the same way you define `Query`, `Path` and `Cookie` parameters.

## Import `Header` { #import-header }

First import `Header`:

{* ../../docs_src/header_params/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[3] *}

## Declare `Header` parameters { #declare-header-parameters }

Then declare the header parameters using the same structure as with `Path`, `Query` and `Cookie`.

                "The parameters " + format(parameters) + " for goal " + mojo.getRoleHint() + " are missing or invalid");

        this.mojo = mojo;

        this.parameters = parameters;
    }

    private static String format(List<Parameter> parameters) {
        StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder(128);
        if (parameters != null) {
            for (Parameter parameter : parameters) {

{* ../../docs_src/body/tutorial002_py310.py *}

## Request body + path parameters { #request-body-path-parameters }

You can declare path parameters and request body at the same time.

**FastAPI** will recognize that the function parameters that match path parameters should be **taken from the path**, and that function parameters that are declared to be Pydantic models should be **taken from the request body**.
