And an `APIRoute` subclass to use that custom request class.

### Create a custom `GzipRequest` class

/// tip

This is a toy example to demonstrate how it works, if you need Gzip support, you can use the provided [`GzipMiddleware`](../advanced/middleware.md#gzipmiddleware){.internal-link target=_blank}.

///

# Extending OpenAPI

There are some cases where you might need to modify the generated OpenAPI schema.

In this section you will see how.

## The normal process

The normal (default) process, is as follows.

A `FastAPI` application (instance) has an `.openapi()` method that is expected to return the OpenAPI schema.

# Form Data

When you need to receive form fields instead of JSON, you can use `Form`.

/// info

To use forms, first install <a href="https://github.com/Kludex/python-multipart" class="external-link" target="_blank">`python-multipart`</a>.

Make sure you create a [virtual environment](../virtual-environments.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, activate it, and then install it, for example:

```console
$ pip install python-multipart
```

- Temporary credentials do not need to be stored with the application but are generated dynamically and provided to the application when requested. When (or even before) the temporary credentials expire, the application can request new credentials.

Following are advantages for using temporary credentials:

- Eliminates the need to embed long-term credentials with an application.

        This is the file specification used to activate a profile. The missing value will be the location
        of a file that needs to exist, and if it doesn't the profile must run.  On the other hand exists will test
        for the existence of the file and if it is there will run the profile.
