FastAPI supports dependencies that do some <abbr title='sometimes also called "exit code", "cleanup code", "teardown code", "closing code", "context manager exit code", etc.'>extra steps after finishing</abbr>.

To do this, use `yield` instead of `return`, and write the extra steps (code) after.

!!! tip
    Make sure to use `yield` one single time.
