# Background Tasks - `BackgroundTasks`

You can declare a parameter in a *path operation function* or dependency function with the type `BackgroundTasks`, and then you can use it to schedule the execution of background tasks after the response is sent.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import BackgroundTasks
```

# Body - Fields

The same way you can declare additional validation and metadata in *path operation function* parameters with `Query`, `Path` and `Body`, you can declare validation and metadata inside of Pydantic models using Pydantic's `Field`.

## Import `Field`

First, you have to import it:

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python hl_lines="4"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/body_fields/tutorial001_an_py310.py!}
    ```

=== "Python 3.9+"

8. Notice that this *path operation function* uses regular `def` instead of `async def`.

    As always, in FastAPI you can combine `def` and `async def` as needed.

    If you need a refresher about when to use which, check out the section _"In a hurry?"_ in the docs about [`async` and `await`](../async.md#in-a-hurry){.internal-link target=_blank}.

# `Request` class

You can declare a parameter in a *path operation function* or dependency to be of type `Request` and then you can access the raw request object directly, without any validation, etc.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Request
```

!!! tip

from fastapi.testclient import TestClient

from docs_src.path_operation_advanced_configuration.tutorial003 import app

client = TestClient(app)


def test_get():
    response = client.get("/items/")
    assert response.status_code == 200, response.text
    assert response.json() == [{"item_id": "Foo"}]


def test_openapi_schema():
    response = client.get("/openapi.json")
    assert response.status_code == 200, response.text

@sub_router.get("/")
def read_item():
    return {"id": "foo"}


router.include_router(sub_router, prefix="/items")

app.include_router(router)

client = TestClient(app)


def test_path_operation():
    response = client.get("/items/")
    assert response.status_code == 200, response.text
    assert response.json() == {"id": "foo"}

    response = client.get("/openapi.json")

### Шаг 3: определите *операцию пути (path operation)*

#### Путь (path)

"Путь" это часть URL, после первого символа `/`, следующего за именем домена.

Для URL:

```
https://example.com/items/foo
```

...путь выглядит так:

import pytest
from fastapi.testclient import TestClient

from docs_src.path_operation_configuration.tutorial006 import app

client = TestClient(app)


@pytest.mark.parametrize(
    "path,expected_status,expected_response",
    [
        ("/items/", 200, [{"name": "Foo", "price": 42}]),
        ("/users/", 200, [{"username": "johndoe"}]),
        ("/elements/", 200, [{"item_id": "Foo"}]),
    ],
)

│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── main.py
│   └── test_main.py
```

Let's say that now the file `main.py` with your **FastAPI** app has some other **path operations**.

It has a `GET` operation that could return an error.

It has a `POST` operation that could return several errors.

Both *path operations* require an `X-Token` header.

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python

```

### コード内での`HTTPException`の発生

`HTTPException`は通常のPythonの例外であり、APIに関連するデータを追加したものです。

Pythonの例外なので、`return`ではなく、`raise`です。

これはまた、*path operation関数*の内部で呼び出しているユーティリティ関数の内部から`HTTPException`を発生させた場合、*path operation関数*の残りのコードは実行されず、そのリクエストを直ちに終了させ、`HTTPException`からのHTTPエラーをクライアントに送信することを意味します。

値を返す`return`よりも例外を発生させることの利点は、「依存関係とセキュリティ」のセクションでより明確になります。
