Maintain req.body parameters when changing course

Question

Hello, my question is this::

I am using Express/bodyParser and Nunjucks. I submitted a form with the method POST from my root route '/'.

In the form I have two dice:

• Username
• Date of birth

In the post I submit the form I can do a check, for example, what the age of the user. If he’s older, I redirect him to route X if he’s underage I redirect him to Y.

My doubt is precisely on this route X and Y. How do I bring the name that the user submitted in this request for a new route?

I’m using redirect to send it to X or Y.

You can pass the parameters as follows:

res.redirect(`/nova_rota?nome=${nome}&data=${data}`);

There are other ways, just read the redirect documentation
