# Request Parameters

Here's the reference information for the request parameters.

These are the special functions that you can put in *path operation function* parameters or dependency functions with `Annotated` to get data from the request.

It includes:

* `Query()`
* `Path()`
* `Body()`
* `Cookie()`
* `Header()`
* `Form()`
* `File()`

You can import them all directly from `fastapi`:

```python

# Dependencies - `Depends()` and `Security()`

## `Depends()`

Dependencies are handled mainly with the special function `Depends()` that takes a callable.

Here is the reference for it and its parameters.

You can import it directly from `fastapi`:

```python
from fastapi import Depends
```

::: fastapi.Depends

## `Security()`

            retValue = decode(retValue);
            // special case: if omitted // on protocol, keep path as is
            if (retValue.startsWith("//")) {
                retValue = retValue.substring(2);

                if (retValue.length() >= 2 && (retValue.charAt(1) == '|' || retValue.charAt(1) == ':')) {
                    // special case: if there is a windows drive letter, then keep the original return value

    // my best guess is that the jdk authors have spent more time optimizing that callpath than this
    // one. (StringCoding$StringDecoder vs. StreamDecoder).  StringCoding has a ton of special cases
    // theoretically we could duplicate all that logic here to try to beat 'new String' or at least
    // come close.

Ten en cuenta que, como los **navegadores manejan las cookies** de maneras especiales y detrás de escenas, **no** permiten fácilmente que **JavaScript** las toque.

Si vas a la **UI de la documentación de la API** en `/docs` podrás ver la **documentación** de las cookies para tus *path operations*.

are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
libraries.  However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.

  For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
a de-facto standard.  To achieve this, non-free programs must be

    public void test_isUrlChar_commonSpecialChars() {
        // Test common special characters
        assertTrue(CharUtil.isUrlChar('.'));
        assertTrue(CharUtil.isUrlChar('-'));
        assertTrue(CharUtil.isUrlChar('*'));
        assertTrue(CharUtil.isUrlChar('_'));
    }

    public void test_isUrlChar_urlSpecialChars() {
        // Test URL-specific special characters
        assertTrue(CharUtil.isUrlChar(':'));

```

Again, doing just that declaration, with **FastAPI** you get:

* Editor support (completion, etc.), even for nested models
* Data conversion
* Data validation
* Automatic documentation

## Special types and validation { #special-types-and-validation }

Apart from normal singular types like `str`, `int`, `float`, etc. you can use more complex singular types that inherit from `str`.

        assertEquals(mockNotifyInfo2, response2.getNotifyInformation().get(0));
    }

    @Test
    @DisplayName("Test NotifyResponse with special characters in filenames")
    void testNotifyResponseWithSpecialCharactersInFilenames() {
        // Create notifications with special characters
        FileNotifyInformation unicodeFile = mock(FileNotifyInformation.class);
