Because all the **fields actually change** (the type now includes `None` and they now have a default value of `None`), we need to **re-declare** them.

**FastAPI** will create the object of type `BackgroundTasks` for you and pass it as that parameter.

## Create a task function { #create-a-task-function }

Create a function to be run as the background task.

It is just a standard function that can receive parameters.

It can be an `async def` or normal `def` function, **FastAPI** will know how to handle it correctly.

 *   <li>An annotation named just "Suppress" might someday be treated by a non-Android tool as a
 *       suppression. This would follow the precedent of many of our annotation processors, which
 *       look for any annotation named, e.g., "GwtIncompatible," regardless of package.
 *   <li>An annotation named just "Suppress" might suggest to users that the test is suppressed

For example, if you want to read or manipulate the request body before it is processed by your application.

This is an "advanced" feature.

If you are just starting with **FastAPI** you might want to skip this section.

## Use cases { #use-cases }

Some use cases include:

The important thing to remember is that **the first *type parameter*** you pass to `Annotated` is the **actual type**. The rest, is just metadata for other tools.

For now, you just need to know that `Annotated` exists, and that it's standard Python. 😎

Later you will see how **powerful** it can be.
