You have to return a redirect:
import os
from flask import Flask,redirect
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("https://stackoverflow.com/")
def hello():
return redirect("http://www.example.com", code=302)
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Bind to PORT if defined, otherwise default to 5000.
port = int(os.environ.get('PORT', 5000))
app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=port)
See the documentation on flask docs. The default value for code is 302 so code=302
can be omitted or replaced by other redirect code (one in 301, 302, 303, 305, and 307).
