Pydantic models have a `.dict()` method that returns a `dict` with the model's data.

So, if we create a Pydantic object `user_in` like:

```Python
user_in = UserIn(username="john", password="secret", email="john.doe@example.com")
```

and then we call:

```Python
user_dict = user_in.dict()
```

we now have a `dict` with the data in the variable `user_dict` (it's a `dict` instead of a Pydantic model object).

## Motivation { #motivation }

Let's start with a simple example:

{* ../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial001.py *}

Calling this program outputs:

```
John Doe
```

The function does the following:

* Takes a `first_name` and `last_name`.
* Converts the first letter of each one to upper case with `title()`.

Now use the operation `GET` with the path `/users/me`.

You will get your user's data, like:

```JSON
{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "******@****.***",
  "full_name": "John Doe",
  "disabled": false,
  "hashed_password": "fakehashedsecret"
}
```

Rufen Sie den Endpunkt `/users/me/` auf, Sie erhalten die Response:

```JSON
{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "******@****.***",
  "full_name": "John Doe",
  "disabled": false
}
```

Llama al endpoint `/users/me/`, obtendrás el response como:

```JSON
{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "******@****.***",
  "full_name": "John Doe",
  "disabled": false
}
```

Call the endpoint `/users/me/`, you will get the response as:

```JSON
{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "******@****.***",
  "full_name": "John Doe",
  "disabled": false
}
```

    return user_id


# A Pydantic model
class User(BaseModel):
    id: int
    name: str
    joined: date
```

That can then be used like:

```Python
my_user: User = User(id=3, name="John Doe", joined="2018-07-19")

second_user_data = {
    "id": 4,
    "name": "Mary",
    "joined": "2018-11-30",
}

my_second_user: User = User(**second_user_data)
```

/// info

// Bean metadata introspection
BeanDesc beanDesc = BeanDescFactory.getBeanDesc(MyBean.class);
PropertyDesc nameProperty = beanDesc.getPropertyDesc("name");
nameProperty.setValue(bean, "John Doe");

// Bean copying with flexible options
BeanUtil.copyBeanToBean(source, destination);
BeanUtil.copyBeanToBean(source, destination, options -> 
    options.exclude("password", "internalId"));

Вызвав эндпоинт `/users/me/`, вы получите ответ в виде:

```JSON
{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "******@****.***",
  "full_name": "John Doe",
  "disabled": false
}
