I am new to python Flask, and may be trying to use Flask in a way it is not intended.

Can I call 2 routes from a ‘parent’ route?

@app.route("/parent_route")

    # call route1 (by some means, this 'redirect' appears not to do anything)
    
    x = redirect(url_for('/route1', methods=['GET']))

    # call route2 (by some means), passing the output from route1
    
    y = redirect(url_for('/route2', x=x, methods=['GET']))

    # render the html page, passing the output from route2
    
    return redirect(url_for("html_page", y=y))


@app.route("/route1", methods=['GET'])
    
    # some processing, then ...
    return x


@app.route("/route2/<x>", methods=['GET'])
    
    # some processing, then ...
    return y
