# Form Data { #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
```

### Use cases: external service { #use-cases-external-service }

An example could be that you have an external authentication provider that you need to call.

You send it a token and it returns an authenticated user.

This provider might be charging you per request, and calling it might take some extra time than if you had a fixed mock user for tests.

But when checking benchmarks and comparisons you should keep the following in mind.

## Benchmarks and speed { #benchmarks-and-speed }

When you check the benchmarks, it is common to see several tools of different types compared as equivalent.

Specifically, to see Uvicorn, Starlette and FastAPI compared together (among many other tools).

	evnot.targetList.Remove(targetIDSet)
}

// Send - sends the event to all registered notification targets
func (evnot *EventNotifier) Send(args eventArgs) {
	evnot.RLock()
	targetIDSet := evnot.bucketRulesMap[args.BucketName].Match(args.EventName, args.Object.Name)
	evnot.RUnlock()

	if len(targetIDSet) == 0 {
		return
	}

	// If MINIO_API_SYNC_EVENTS is set, send events synchronously.

### Timing Attacks { #timing-attacks }

But what's a "timing attack"?

Let's imagine some attackers are trying to guess the username and password.

And they send a request with a username `johndoe` and a password `love123`.

Then the Python code in your application would be equivalent to something like:

```Python
if "johndoe" == "stanleyjobson" and "love123" == "swordfish":

time scanning up to a sixteenth of the namespace. Object versions marked `PENDING` or `FAILED` are re-queued for replication.

Replication speed depends on the cluster load, number of objects in the object store as well as storage speed. In addition, any bandwidth limits set via `mc admin bucket remote add` could also contribute to replication speed. The number of workers used for replication defaults to 100. Based on network bandwidth and system load, the number of workers used in replication...

If a client tries to send some **extra cookies**, they will receive an **error** response.

    **Warning**: this is only a stub to connect the components with OpenAPI in FastAPI,
    but it doesn't implement the full OpenIdConnect scheme, for example, it doesn't use
    the OpenIDConnect URL. You would need to to subclass it and implement it in your
    code.

Returning any error will also cancel the stream remotely.

CAREFUL: When utilizing two-way communication, it is important to ensure that the remote handler is not blocked on a send.
If the remote handler is blocked on a send, and the client is trying to send without the remote receiving,
the operation would become deadlocked if the channels are full.
