I have a view, that actually is rendering only after an axios request finish, but I need to render the view first, and when the request is ready, I pass the parameter to the view.

Actually:

app.get('/', function(req, res){
axios.get('example.com')
.then(function(response) {
res.render('routes/site/index', {ctx: response});
});
});

What I need:

The view loading before the request, and after the request ready, only pass the parameter to the same view that was already loaded.

You cannot do res.render() twice for 1 request.

I suggest you render your page without a parameter, do the axios/fetch request client side, and when the request is done handle the response like you would do.

You can't send parameters after using res.render().

However, what you can do is use a javascript code asking for the parameter on the client side. (Inside your index page here)

Here's an example of how to do that: http get in javascript
