Let's see how to make use of a custom `Request` subclass to decompress gzip requests.

And an `APIRoute` subclass to use that custom request class.

/**
 * Servlet filter for handling character encoding conversion and URL redirection.
 * This filter processes requests with specific encoding requirements and converts
 * character encodings according to configured mapping rules.
 *
 * <p>The filter intercepts requests matching configured path patterns and
 * redirects them with proper character encoding applied to parameters.</p>

			// avoiding S3’s heuristic-driven issues.

			// For MinIO developers, decode S3 metadata with mime.WordDecoder, validate outputs,
			// report encoding bugs to AWS, and use ASCII-only metadata to ensure reliable S3 API

But when the form includes files, it is encoded as `multipart/form-data`. You'll read about handling files in the next chapter.

But when the form includes files, it is encoded as `multipart/form-data`. If you use `File`, **FastAPI** will know it has to get the files from the correct part of the body.
