Pass a request to a DJANGO REST api using Angular and then return those results in a DJANGO view

Ok, so basically what is happening is I have a search input on my index page. The user types something in the search input, and that is sent to the Django REST api which returns the data in JSON format. I can loop through that results array using Angular ng-repeat. But my question is: is there a way to send that request to another django view and have django return the values using a for loop and a template that I already created?

( I am trying to avoid recreating the template specifically for Angular because that would be repetitive)

Any suggestions, or help on this comes much appreciated. Thank you in advance for taking the time to help me. All the best.

It depends on the architecture of your application.

If you are building your client as a single page web application using Angular & your business logic is served using the Django REST API in JSON/XML format. Then rendering of the view should be the responsibility of the client side code.

As per me whatever you are doing looks perfectly okay. I don't see any redundancy of the templates in this architecture.
