# `FastAPI` class

Here's the reference information for the `FastAPI` class, with all its parameters, attributes and methods.

You can import the `FastAPI` class directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import FastAPI
```

::: fastapi.FastAPI
    options:
        members:
            - openapi_version
            - webhooks
            - state
            - dependency_overrides
            - openapi

Here you will see different recipes or "how to" guides for **several topics**.

Most of these ideas would be more or less **independent**, and in most cases you should only need to study them if they apply directly to **your project**.

If something seems interesting and useful to your project, go ahead and check it, but otherwise, you might probably just skip them.

Then we use the request directly, and extract the body as `bytes`. This means that FastAPI won't even try to parse the request payload as JSON.

And then in our code, we parse that YAML content directly, and then we are again using the same Pydantic model to validate the YAML content:

     * on his discretion, e.g. via the {@code -Dkey=value} parameter on the command line.
     *
     * @return The user properties, never {@code null}.
