`Optional[Something]` là một cách viết ngắn gọn của `Union[Something, None]`, chúng là tương đương nhau.

Điều này cũng có nghĩa là trong Python 3.10, bạn có thể sử dụng `Something | None`:

//// tab | Python 3.10+

```Python hl_lines="1"
{!> ../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial009_py310.py!}
```

This means that it will **always have a value**, it's just that sometimes the value could be `None` (or `null` in JSON).

That means that, clients using your API don't have to check if the value exists or not, they can **assume the field will always be there**, but just that in some cases it will have the default value of `None`.

The way to describe this in OpenAPI, is to mark that field as **required**, because it will always be there.

Tu modelo de response podría tener valores por defecto, como:

* `description: Union[str, None] = None` (o `str | None = None` en Python 3.10) tiene un valor por defecto de `None`.
* `tax: float = 10.5` tiene un valor por defecto de `10.5`.
* `tags: List[str] = []` tiene un valor por defecto de una lista vacía: `[]`.
