## Dependencies for groups of *path operations* { #dependencies-for-groups-of-path-operations }

	// * a boolean to indicate success/failure of the operation
	// * an error on failure of lock request operation.
	RLock(ctx context.Context, args LockArgs) (bool, error)

	// Do write lock for given LockArgs. It should return
	// * a boolean to indicate success/failure of the operation
	// * an error on failure of lock request operation.
	Lock(ctx context.Context, args LockArgs) (bool, error)

In this case, the task function will write to a file (simulating sending an email).

And as the write operation doesn't use `async` and `await`, we define the function with normal `def`:

{* ../../docs_src/background_tasks/tutorial001_py39.py hl[6:9] *}

## Add the background task { #add-the-background-task }

Inside of your *path operation function*, pass your task function to the *background tasks* object with the method `.add_task()`:

   *
   * @throws UnsupportedOperationException if this range set does not support the {@code add}
   *     operation
   */
  void add(Range<C> range);

  /**
   * Removes the specified range from this {@code RangeSet} (optional operation). After this
   * operation, if {@code range.contains(c)}, {@code this.contains(c)} will return {@code false}.
   *
   * <p>If {@code range} is empty, this is a no-op.

openapi_content = json.loads(file_path.read_text())

for path_data in openapi_content["paths"].values():
    for operation in path_data.values():
        tag = operation["tags"][0]
        operation_id = operation["operationId"]
        to_remove = f"{tag}-"
        new_operation_id = operation_id[len(to_remove) :]
        operation["operationId"] = new_operation_id

                            * `security_scopes.scopes` contendrá `["me"]` para la *path operation* `read_users_me`, porque está declarado en la dependencia `get_current_active_user`.

Similar a como puedes [agregar `dependencies` a los *path operation decorators*](dependencies-in-path-operation-decorators.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, puedes agregarlos a la aplicación de `FastAPI`.

En ese caso, se aplicarán a todas las *path operations* en la aplicación:

{* ../../docs_src/dependencies/tutorial012_an_py39.py hl[17] *}

/**
 * Represents the response of a suggest delete operation.
 * This class contains information about any errors that occurred during the operation
 * and the time taken to complete the operation.
 */
public class SuggestDeleteResponse {
    /** List of errors that occurred during the operation. */
    protected final List<Throwable> errors = new ArrayList<>();
    /** Time taken for the operation in milliseconds. */
    protected final long took;

For example, when using GraphQL you normally perform all the actions using only `POST` operations.

### Step 4: define the **path operation function** { #step-4-define-the-path-operation-function }

This is our "**path operation function**":

* **path**: is `/`.
* **operation**: is `get`.
* **function**: is the function below the "decorator" (below `@app.get("/")`).
