1Yes, why not? As long as you import it.willeM_ Van Onsem– willeM_ Van Onsem2018-10-08 11:54:01 +00:00Commented Oct 8, 2018 at 11:54

yes but why would you do that, bring that view function to the app where the url is. Also why two urls for same thing. But still if you want to do that don't call that view function in another app, redirect that app2 url to the url of app1 which uses that view function.Vaibhav Vishal– Vaibhav Vishal2018-10-08 11:57:15 +00:00Commented Oct 8, 2018 at 11:57

Yes, say that the views look like:
# app1/views.py
def view1(request):
# ...
passand
# app2/views.py
def view2(request):
# ...
passYou can redirect to both views in the urls.py of an app, as long as you import it correctly:
# app1/urls.py
from django.urls import path
from app1.views import view1
from app2.views import view2
urlpatterns = [
path('view1', view1),
path('view2', view2),
]So the app itself is not important, given you import the view function properly of course.
That being said, it is a bit uncommon to see this pattern. It is not impossible, and every now and then you see this. But typically the idea is that apps are not that much related. Sure some relations exist, but typically you aim to minimize this.
