FastAPI GET request converting some query parameters to a request body

I'm using the following schemas for my FastAPI Get request:

class JWTClaims(BaseModel):
    iat: int
    exp: int
    aud: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]
    iss: str
    sub: str
    azp: str


class AccessClaims(JWTClaims):
    scope: str


@router.get("/client")
async def get_user_client(claims:AccessClaims = Depends()):
    pass

FastAPI is trying to convert the aud field as part of a request body- how can I eliminate this so that it becomes a valid GET request?

Here a workaround, you can add the aud as argument of the route like this:

class JWTClaims(BaseModel):
    iat: int
    exp: int
    iss: str
    sub: str
    azp: str


class AccessClaims(JWTClaims):
    scope: str


app = FastAPI()


# as argument it works
@app.get("/client")
async def get_user_client(aud: Optional[List[str]] = Query(None), claims:AccessClaims = Depends()):
    return

And you have the aud in the swagger. It will be a list but, users can supply only one if they want.

The swagger with aud

For reason I don't understand, doing this in the class doesn't work:

class JWTClaims(BaseModel):
    iat: int
    exp: int
    aud: Optional[List[str]] = Query(None)
    iss: str
    sub: str
    azp: str

If you're really want the Optional[str, List[str]], you will need to have it as a body request:

@app.get("/client")
async def get_user_client(aud: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]] = Query(None), claims:AccessClaims = Depends()):
    return

leads to this error when loading the app:

    async def get_user_client(aud: Optional[Union[str, List[str]]] = Query(None), claims:AccessClaims = Depends()):
