### Always `raise` in Dependencies with `yield` and `except` { #always-raise-in-dependencies-with-yield-and-except }

If you catch an exception in a dependency with `yield`, unless you are raising another `HTTPException` or similar, **you should re-raise the original exception**.

You can re-raise the same exception using `raise`:

# Exceptions - `HTTPException` and `WebSocketException`

These are the exceptions that you can raise to show errors to the client.

When you raise an exception, as would happen with normal Python, the rest of the execution is aborted. This way you can raise these exceptions from anywhere in the code to abort a request and show the error to the client.

You can use:

* `HTTPException`
* `WebSocketException`
