## Pin your `fastapi` version

The first thing you should do is to "pin" the version of **FastAPI** you are using to the specific latest version that you know works correctly for your application.

For example, let's say you are using version `0.45.0` in your app.

Para aprender o básico de HTTPS de uma perspectiva do usuário, verifique <a href="https://howhttps.works/pt-br/" class="external-link" target="_blank">https://howhttps.works/pt-br/</a>.

Agora, a partir de uma perspectiva do desenvolvedor, aqui estão algumas coisas para ter em mente ao pensar em HTTPS:

# Middleware

You can add middleware to **FastAPI** applications.

A "middleware" is a function that works with every **request** before it is processed by any specific *path operation*. And also with every **response** before returning it.

* It takes each **request** that comes to your application.
* It can then do something to that **request** or run any needed code.

Do you want to just have a `str`? Or just a `dict`? Or a database class model instance directly? It all works the same way.

You actually don't have users that log in to your application but robots, bots, or other systems, that have just an access token? Again, it all works the same.

                                    "normal": {
                                        "summary": "A normal example",
                                        "description": "A **normal** item works correctly.",
                                        "value": {
                                            "name": "Foo",
                                            "description": "A very nice Item",

=== "Python 3.8+ non-Annotated"

    !!! tip
        Prefer to use the `Annotated` version if possible.

    ```Python hl_lines="11-14"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/body_fields/tutorial001.py!}
    ```

`Field` works the same way as `Query`, `Path` and `Body`, it has all the same parameters, etc.

!!! note "Technical Details"

And of course, it supports the same:

* data validation
* data serialization
* data documentation, etc.

This works the same way as with Pydantic models. And it is actually achieved in the same way underneath, using Pydantic.

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

Um **die Grundlagen von HTTPS** aus Sicht des Benutzers zu erlernen, schauen Sie sich <a href="https://howhttps.works/" class="external-link" target="_blank">https://howhttps.works/</a> an.

Aus **Sicht des Entwicklers** sollten Sie beim Nachdenken über HTTPS Folgendes beachten:

* Für HTTPS muss **der Server** über von einem **Dritten** generierte **„Zertifikate“** verfügen.

It is a plug-in for many frameworks (and there's a plug-in for Starlette too).

The way it works is that you write the definition of the schema using YAML format inside the docstring of each function handling a route.

And it generates OpenAPI schemas.

That's how it works in Flask, Starlette, Responder, etc.

But if we access the docs UI at the "official" URL using the proxy with port `9999`, at `/api/v1/docs`, it works correctly! 🎉
