Nesse caso, a função de tarefa gravará em um arquivo (simulando o envio de um e-mail).

E como a operação de gravação não usa `async` e `await`, definimos a função com `def` normal:

```Python hl_lines="6-9"
{!../../docs_src/background_tasks/tutorial001.py!}
```

## Adicionar a tarefa em segundo plano

In this case, the task function will write to a file (simulating sending an email).

And as the write operation doesn't use `async` and `await`, we define the function with normal `def`:

{* ../../docs_src/background_tasks/tutorial001.py hl[6:9] *}

## Add the background task

def read_item(item_id: int, q: Union[str, None] = None):
    return {"item_id": item_id, "q": q}
