## `Union` или `anyOf`

Вы можете определить ответ как `Union` из двух типов. Это означает, что ответ должен соответствовать одному из них.

Он будет определён в OpenAPI как `anyOf`.

Для этого используйте стандартные аннотации типов в Python <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Union" class="external-link" target="_blank">`typing.Union`</a>:

#### Using `Union` or `Optional`

If you are using a Python version below 3.10, here's a tip from my very **subjective** point of view:

* 🚨 Avoid using `Optional[SomeType]`
* Instead ✨ **use `Union[SomeType, None]`** ✨.
