I’m currently developing a basic web platform using javascript, html, and python flask. I’m using firebase for hosting. I have a javascript function looking something like this:

function giveData() { const data = { variable1: testName, variable2: timeUntil, variable3: timeCommit, variable4: additionalInfo }; console.log("Sending data to server:", data); fetch('/mywebsite/update_data', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(data) }) }

and have some more code structured to receive and display the response. In my python, I have something like this:
`@app.route(‘/mywebsite/update_data’, methods=[‘POST’])
@cross_origin()
def update_data():
global actualData # Declare actualData as global
actualData = request.json

topics_list = getTopics(actualData['variable1'], actualData['variable2'], actualData['variable3'], actualData['variable4'])
return jsonify({'topics_list': topics_list})`

where “mywebsite” is the project’s website I have it hosted on firebase. However, when I try to run the code, the giveData() function returns the following errors:
“Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()” from “/mywebsite/update_data:1”, and
“SyntaxError: Unexpected token ‘<‘, “<!DOCTYPE “… is not valid JSON” from script.js/144.

I think the two errors are really the same problem, which is that the fetch command can’t find the file and function from python. I have all the files in my public directory, which is the one I specified for hosting on Firebase. I’ve tried a lot of different paths in the fetch statement, but I can’t seem to get anything to work. Also, for some reason, my partner ran it from VSCODE locally using the port 127.0.0.1:5000, and it worked there. It seems to be some issue on my end, or with the hosting.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.
