[FIXED] Put text into input html field using Flask

Issue

I know I can easily extract data from html input tag using request.form['email'] after POST method. Is there a way to populate this particular input tag with something like:

request.form['email'] = current_user.email

which obviously throws 'ImmutableMultiDict' objects are immutable? (Without using FlaskWTF). Any help would be much appreciated!

Solution

Actually, this could be easily done using value attribute, e.g.:

<input class="email" name="email" value="{{ current_user.email }}" required/>
