Path Parameters, Query Params, and Request Bodies

Define typed parameters and request body schemas with Pydantic.

Path Parameter Validation

Add validators to path parameters using Path(): set ge, le, gt, lt constraints.

from fastapi import FastAPI, Path
app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/items/{item_id}")
def get_item(item_id: int = Path(ge=1, le=1000)):
    return {"item_id": item_id}

# GET /items/0  → 422 (must be >= 1)

Query Parameter Validation

Use Query() to add validation, default values, aliases, and descriptions to query parameters.

from fastapi import FastAPI, Query
app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/search")
def search(
    q: str = Query(min_length=2, max_length=50),
    page: int = Query(default=1, ge=1),
):
    return {"q": q, "page": page}
