## Include the same router multiple times with different `prefix` { #include-the-same-router-multiple-times-with-different-prefix }

You can also use `.include_router()` multiple times with the *same* router using different prefixes.

This could be useful, for example, to expose the same API under different prefixes, e.g. `/api/v1` and `/api/latest`.

```

...this would work:

```JSON
{
    "item_id": "foo-item",
    "needy": "sooooneedy"
}
```

And of course, you can define some parameters as required, some as having a default value, and some entirely optional:

{* ../../docs_src/query_params/tutorial006_py310.py hl[8] *}

In this case, there are 3 query parameters:

* `needy`, a required `str`.

query_extractor --> query_or_cookie_extractor --> read_query
```

## Using the same dependency multiple times { #using-the-same-dependency-multiple-times }

If one of your dependencies is declared multiple times for the same *path operation*, for example, multiple dependencies have a common sub-dependency, **FastAPI** will know to call that sub-dependency only once per request.

This will be especially useful when you use it in a **large code base** where you use **the same dependencies** over and over again in **many *path operations***.

## To `async` or not to `async` { #to-async-or-not-to-async }

As dependencies will also be called by **FastAPI** (the same as your *path operation functions*), the same rules apply while defining your functions.

# 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`.

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`.

## Password hashing { #password-hashing }

"Hashing" means converting some content (a password in this case) into a sequence of bytes (just a string) that looks like gibberish.

Whenever you pass exactly the same content (exactly the same password) you get exactly the same gibberish.

But you cannot convert from the gibberish back to the password.

**FastAPI** provides the same `starlette.responses` as `fastapi.responses` just as a convenience for you, the developer. But most of the available responses come directly from Starlette. The same with `Request`.

///

## Override the default exception handlers { #override-the-default-exception-handlers }

**FastAPI** has some default exception handlers.

You could also use `from starlette.templating import Jinja2Templates`.

**FastAPI** provides the same `starlette.templating` as `fastapi.templating` just as a convenience for you, the developer. But most of the available responses come directly from Starlette. The same with `Request` and `StaticFiles`.

///

## Writing templates { #writing-templates }

All of them share the same parameters for additional validation and metadata you have seen.

///

/// note | Technical Details

When you import `Query`, `Path` and others from `fastapi`, they are actually functions.

That when called, return instances of classes of the same name.
