But there are several cases in which you might benefit from using `UploadFile`.

## File Parameters with `UploadFile` { #file-parameters-with-uploadfile }

Define a file parameter with a type of `UploadFile`:

{* ../../docs_src/request_files/tutorial001_an_py310.py hl[14] *}

Using `UploadFile` has several advantages over `bytes`:

# Metadata and Docs URLs { #metadata-and-docs-urls }

You can customize several metadata configurations in your **FastAPI** application.

## Metadata for API { #metadata-for-api }

You can set the following fields that are used in the OpenAPI specification and the automatic API docs UIs:

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|------------|------|-------------|
| `title` | `str` | The title of the API. |

But when checking benchmarks and comparisons you should keep the following in mind.

## Benchmarks and speed { #benchmarks-and-speed }

When you check the benchmarks, it is common to see several tools of different types compared as equivalent.

Specifically, to see Uvicorn, Starlette and FastAPI compared together (among many other tools).

# Path Operation Configuration { #path-operation-configuration }

There are several parameters that you can pass to your *path operation decorator* to configure it.

/// warning

Notice that these parameters are passed directly to the *path operation decorator*, not to your *path operation function*.

///

## Response Status Code { #response-status-code }

You can define the (HTTP) `status_code` to be used in the response of your *path operation*.
