## Optional File Upload { #optional-file-upload }

You can make a file optional by using standard type annotations and setting a default value of `None`:

{* ../../docs_src/request_files/tutorial001_02_an_py310.py hl[9,17] *}

	Handler    HandlerID // ID of handler if invoking a remote handler.
	Op         Op        // Operation. Other fields change based on this value.
	Flags      Flags     // Optional flags.
	Payload    []byte    // Optional payload.
}

// Flags is a set of flags set on a message.
type Flags uint8

func (m message) String() string {
	var res []string
	if m.MuxID != 0 {

    * If it is not, the client will see a useful, clear error.
* Check if there is an optional query parameter named `q` (as in `http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?q=somequery`) for `GET` requests.
    * As the `q` parameter is declared with `= None`, it is optional.
    * Without the `None` it would be required (as is the body in the case with `PUT`).

## First dependency "dependable" { #first-dependency-dependable }

You could create a first dependency ("dependable") like:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial005_an_py310.py hl[8:9] *}

It declares an optional query parameter `q` as a `str`, and then it just returns it.

This is quite simple (not very useful), but will help us focus on how the sub-dependencies work.
