# Path Operation Configuration { #path-operation-configuration }

There are several parameters that you can pass to your *path operation decorator* to configure it.

/// warning

Notice that these parameters are passed directly to the *path operation decorator*, not to your *path operation function*.

///

## Response Status Code { #response-status-code }

You can define the (HTTP) `status_code` to be used in the response of your *path operation*.

And you can also declare body parameters as optional, by setting the default to `None`:

{* ../../docs_src/body_multiple_params/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[18:20] *}

/// note

Notice that, in this case, the `item` that would be taken from the body is optional. As it has a `None` default value.

///

## Multiple body parameters { #multiple-body-parameters }

            String nonceStr = Arrays.toString(nonce);
            assertFalse(nonces.contains(nonceStr), "Nonce should be unique");
            nonces.add(nonceStr);
        }

        // Then all nonces should be unique
        assertEquals(numNonces, nonces.size(), "All nonces should be unique");
    }

    @Test
    @DisplayName("Should generate secure nonces with proper randomness")
    void testSecureNonceGenerationRandomness() {

Now you can import and use the client code. It could look like this, notice that you get autocompletion for the methods:

<img src="/img/tutorial/generate-clients/image02.png">

You will also get autocompletion for the payload to send:

<img src="/img/tutorial/generate-clients/image03.png">

/// tip

Notice the autocompletion for `name` and `price`, that was defined in the FastAPI application, in the `Item` model.

{* ../../docs_src/query_params/tutorial002_py310.py hl[7] *}

In this case, the function parameter `q` will be optional, and will be `None` by default.

/// check

Also notice that **FastAPI** is smart enough to notice that the path parameter `item_id` is a path parameter and `q` is not, so, it's a query parameter.

///

## Query parameter type conversion { #query-parameter-type-conversion }

```Python
something()
```

or

```Python
something(some_argument, some_keyword_argument="foo")
```

then it is a "callable".

## Classes as dependencies { #classes-as-dependencies_1 }

You might notice that to create an instance of a Python class, you use that same syntax.

For example:

```Python
class Cat:
    def __init__(self, name: str):
        self.name = name


fluffy = Cat(name="Mr Fluffy")

Maybe you need to start a new version, or you just got tired of running it. 🤷

///

### Lifespan function { #lifespan-function }

The first thing to notice, is that we are defining an async function with `yield`. This is very similar to Dependencies with `yield`.

{* ../../docs_src/events/tutorial003.py hl[14:19] *}

```JSON
{"item_id":3}
```

/// check

Notice that the value your function received (and returned) is `3`, as a Python `int`, not a string `"3"`.

## Import `Field` { #import-field }

First, you have to import it:

{* ../../docs_src/body_fields/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[4] *}


/// warning

Notice that `Field` is imported directly from `pydantic`, not from `fastapi` as are all the rest (`Query`, `Path`, `Body`, etc).

///

## Declare model attributes { #declare-model-attributes }
