Le paramètre de requête `q` a pour type `Union[str, None]` (ou `str | None` en Python 3.10), signifiant qu'il est de type `str` mais pourrait aussi être égal à `None`, et bien sûr, la valeur par défaut est `None`, donc **FastAPI** saura qu'il n'est pas requis.

!!! note
    **FastAPI** saura que la valeur de `q` n'est pas requise grâce à la valeur par défaut `= None`.
