You can combine normal FastAPI *path operations* with GraphQL on the same application.

/// tip

**GraphQL** solves some very specific use cases.

It has **advantages** and **disadvantages** when compared to common **web APIs**.

Make sure you evaluate if the **benefits** for your use case compensate the **drawbacks**. 🤓

```Python
q: Annotated[str, Query()] = "rick"
```

...or in older code bases you will find:

```Python
q: str = Query(default="rick")
```

### Advantages of `Annotated` { #advantages-of-annotated }

**Using `Annotated` is recommended** instead of the default value in function parameters, it is **better** for multiple reasons. 🤓

## Introduction

Returns a set of temporary security credentials that you can use to access MinIO resources. AssumeRole requires authorization credentials for an existing user on MinIO. The advantages of this API are

## Requirements { #requirements }

After testing several alternatives, I decided that I was going to use [**Pydantic**](https://docs.pydantic.dev/) for its advantages.

Then I contributed to it, to make it fully compliant with JSON Schema, to support different ways to define constraint declarations, and to improve editor support (type checks, autocompletion) based on the tests in several editors.

Define a file parameter with a type of `UploadFile`:

{* ../../docs_src/request_files/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[14] *}

Using `UploadFile` has several advantages over `bytes`:

* You don't have to use `File()` in the default value of the parameter.
* It uses a "spooled" file:

Following are advantages for using temporary credentials:

- Eliminates the need to embed long-term credentials with an application.
- Eliminates the need to provide access to buckets and objects without having to define static credentials.

   * Implementation of {@link Stream#flatMap} with an object spliterator output type.

   * <p>To avoid having this type, we could use {@code FlatMapSpliterator} directly. The main
   * advantages to having the type are the ability to use its constructor reference below and the
   * parallelism with the primitive version. In short, it makes its caller ({@code flatMap})
   * simpler.
