```

=== "Python 3.8+"

    ```Python hl_lines="3  17"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/path_operation_configuration/tutorial001.py!}
    ```

That status code will be used in the response and will be added to the OpenAPI schema.

!!! note "Technical Details"
    You could also use `from starlette import status`.

You will see a simple page like:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image01.png">

You can type messages in the input box, and send them:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image02.png">

And your **FastAPI** application with WebSockets will respond back:

<img src="/img/tutorial/websockets/image03.png">

    ```

In this case, the function parameter `q` will be optional, and will be `None` by default.

!!! check
    Also notice that **FastAPI** is smart enough to notice that the path parameter `item_id` is a path parameter and `q` is not, so, it's a query parameter.

## Query parameter type conversion

You can also declare `bool` types, and they will be converted:

=== "Python 3.10+"

    ```Python hl_lines="7"

The files will be uploaded as "form data".

If you declare the type of your *path operation function* parameter as `bytes`, **FastAPI** will read the file for you and you will receive the contents as `bytes`.

Keep in mind that this means that the whole contents will be stored in memory. This will work well for small files.

This is normally called a **webhook**.

## Webhooks steps

The process normally is that **you define** in your code what is the message that you will send, the **body of the request**.

You also define in some way at which **moments** your app will send those requests or events.

And **your users** define in some way (for example in a web dashboard somewhere) the **URL** where your app should send those requests.

    {!> ../../../docs_src/body_nested_models/tutorial003.py!}
    ```

With this, even if you receive a request with duplicate data, it will be converted to a set of unique items.

And whenever you output that data, even if the source had duplicates, it will be output as a set of unique items.

And it will be annotated / documented accordingly too.

## Nested Models

Each attribute of a Pydantic model has a type.

You can "star" FastAPI in GitHub (clicking the star button at the top right): <a href="https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi" class="external-link" target="_blank">https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi</a>. ⭐️

By adding a star, other users will be able to find it more easily and see that it has been already useful for others.

## Watch the GitHub repository for releases

!!! note
    FastAPI will know that the value of `q` is not required because of the default value `= None`.

    The `Union` in `Union[str, None]` will allow your editor to give you better support and detect errors.

## Additional validation

    ```Python hl_lines="10"
    {!> ../../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial011.py!}
    ```

In this case, this `__call__` is what **FastAPI** will use to check for additional parameters and sub-dependencies, and this is what will be called to pass a value to the parameter in your *path operation function* later.
