This document focuses on showing a working example on how to use Object Lambda with MinIO, you must have [MinIO deployed in your environment](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/operations/installation.html) before you can start using external lambda functions. You also must install Python version 3.8 or later for the lambda handlers to work.

## Example Lambda handler

Install the necessary dependencies.
```sh

async def update_item(
    *,
    item_id: int,
    item: Annotated[
        Item,
        Body(
            openapi_examples={
                "normal": {
                    "summary": "A normal example",
                    "description": "A **normal** item works correctly.",
                    "value": {
                        "name": "Foo",
                        "description": "A very nice Item",

certs-dir: '/home/user/.minio/certs/'
pools: # Specify the nodes and drives with pools

        - 'https://server1-pool1:9000/mnt/disk{1...4}/'
        - 'https://server3-pool1:9000/mnt/disk{1...4}/'
        - 'https://server4-pool1:9000/mnt/disk{1...4}/'

        - 'https://server1-pool2:9000/mnt/disk{1...4}/'

                **Example**

                ```python
                from fastapi import FastAPI

                app = FastAPI(
                    servers=[
                        {"url": "https://stag.example.com", "description": "Staging environment"},
                        {"url": "https://prod.example.com", "description": "Production environment"},
                    ]

This includes, for example:

* Email notifications sent after performing an action:
    * As connecting to an email server and sending an email tends to be "slow" (several seconds), you can return the response right away and send the email notification in the background.
* Processing data:
