from typing import Union

from fastapi import Body, FastAPI
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

app = FastAPI()


class Item(BaseModel):
    name: str
    description: Union[str, None] = Field(
        default=None, title="The description of the item", max_length=300
    )
    price: float = Field(gt=0, description="The price must be greater than zero")
    tax: Union[float, None] = None


@app.put("/items/{item_id}")

from typing import Union

from fastapi import FastAPI, Query

@app.get("/items/")
async def read_items(q: Union[str, None] = Query(default=None, max_length=50)):
    results = {"items": [{"item_id": "Foo"}, {"item_id": "Bar"}]}
    if q:
        results.update({"q": q})

```

O parâmetro de consulta `q` é do tipo `Union[str, None]`, o que significa que é do tipo `str` mas que também pode ser `None`, e de fato, o valor padrão é `None`, então o FastAPI saberá que não é obrigatório.

/// note | "Observação"

O FastAPI saberá que o valor de `q` não é obrigatório por causa do valor padrão `= None`.
