/// info

`Query`, `Path`, and other classes you will see later are subclasses of a common `Param` class.

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.

# Including WSGI - Flask, Django, others { #including-wsgi-flask-django-others }

You can mount WSGI applications as you saw with [Sub Applications - Mounts](sub-applications.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, [Behind a Proxy](behind-a-proxy.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

For that, you can use the `WSGIMiddleware` and use it to wrap your WSGI application, for example, Flask, Django, etc.

## Using `WSGIMiddleware` { #using-wsgimiddleware }

And all of them will use the same WebSocket connection.

## Using `Depends` and others { #using-depends-and-others }

In WebSocket endpoints you can import from `fastapi` and use:

* `Depends`
* `Security`
* `Cookie`
* `Header`
* `Path`
* `Query`

They work the same way as for other FastAPI endpoints/*path operations*:
