!!! info
    Keep in mind that dataclasses can't do everything Pydantic models can do.

    So, you might still need to use Pydantic models.

    But if you have a bunch of dataclasses laying around, this is a nice trick to use them to power a web API using FastAPI. 🤓

## Dataclasses in `response_model`

You can also use `dataclasses` in the `response_model` parameter:

```Python hl_lines="1  7-13  19"

## Data validation

But if you go to the browser at <a href="http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo" class="external-link" target="_blank">http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo</a>, you will see a nice HTTP error of:

```JSON

  "detail": [
    {
      "type": "int_parsing",
      "loc": [
        "path",
        "item_id"
