# Response fields

> Document API response fields using the ResponseField component with type annotations, descriptions, and required or optional indicators.

Use the `<ResponseField>` component to define the return values of an API. Many docs also use `<ResponseField>` on pages when you need to list the types of something.

- `response` (string, required) — A response field example

```mdx theme={null}
<ResponseField name="response" type="string" required>
  A response field example
</ResponseField>
```

## Props

- `name` (string, required) — The name of the response value.

- `type` (string, required) — Expected type of the response value. This can be any arbitrary string.

- `default` (string) — The default value.

- `required` (boolean) — Show "required" beside the field name.

- `deprecated` (boolean) — Whether you have deprecated a field or not.

- `pre` (string\[]) — Labels that appear before the name of the field.

- `post` (string\[]) — Labels that appear after the name of the field.

```mdx Response Field Example theme={null}
<ResponseField name="response" type="string" required>
  A response field example
</ResponseField>
```
