## Use a `Response` parameter
|
|
|
|
You can declare a parameter of type `Response` in your *path operation function* (as you can do for cookies).
|
|
|
|
And then you can set headers in that *temporal* response object.
|
|
|
|
```Python hl_lines="2 8 9"
|
|
{!./src/response_headers/tutorial002.py!}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then you can return any object you need, as you normally would (a `dict`, a database model, etc).
|
|
|
|
And if you declared a `response_model`, it will still be used to filter and convert the object you returned.
|
|
|
|
**FastAPI** will use that *temporal* response to extract the headers (also cookies and status code), and will put them in the final response that contains the value you returned, filtered by any `response_model`.
|
|
|
|
You can also declare the `Response` parameter in dependencies, and set headers (and cookies) in them.
|
|
|
|
## Return a `Response` directly
|
|
|
|
You can also add headers when you return a `Response` directly.
|
|
|
|
Create a response as described in [Return a Response Directly](response-directly.md){.internal-link target=_blank} and pass the headers as an additional parameter:
|
|
|
|
```Python hl_lines="10 11 12"
|
|
{!./src/response_headers/tutorial001.py!}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Custom Headers
|
|
|
|
Have in mind that custom proprietary headers can be added <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers" class="external-link" target="_blank">using the 'X-' prefix</a>.
|
|
|
|
But if you have custom headers that you want a client in a browser to be able to see, you need to add them to your CORS configurations (read more in [CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing)](../tutorial/cors.md){.internal-link target=_blank}), using the parameter `expose_headers` documented in <a href="https://www.starlette.io/middleware/#corsmiddleware" class="external-link" target="_blank">Starlette's CORS docs</a>.
