# Lifespan Events { #lifespan-events }

You can define logic (code) that should be executed before the application **starts up**. This means that this code will be executed **once**, **before** the application **starts receiving requests**.

The same way, you can define logic (code) that should be executed when the application is **shutting down**. In this case, this code will be executed **once**, **after** having handled possibly **many requests**.

These dependencies will be executed/solved the same way as normal dependencies. But their value (if they return any) won't be passed to your *path operation function*.

/// tip

Some editors check for unused function parameters, and show them as errors.

Using these `dependencies` in the *path operation decorator* you can make sure they are executed while avoiding editor/tooling errors.

Using `Depends(scope="function")`, the exit code after `yield` is executed right after the *path operation function* is finished, before the response is sent back to the client.

And when using `Depends(scope="request")` (the default), the exit code after `yield` is executed after the response is sent.

Only the code prior to and including the `yield` statement is executed before creating a response:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial007_py39.py hl[2:4] *}

The yielded value is what is injected into *path operations* and other dependencies:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial007_py39.py hl[4] *}

The code following the `yield` statement is executed after the response:
