Vercel Routing Middleware Adds Python Support for FastAPI, Flask, and Django

·2026.10.21 09:00

Key point

The middleware runs as a separate ASGI or WSGI app before requests reach the application, allowing developers to rewrite, redirect, or answer them.

Details

  • Vercel Routing Middleware now supports Python, enabling logic for FastAPI, Flask, Django, and other frameworks.
  • Middleware executes before requests reach the main app, allowing it to rewrite, redirect, or answer requests.
  • Implementation requires pointing the proxy entrypoint in vercel.toml to the proxy and adding dependencies to the vercel.proxy group in pyproject.toml.
  • The vercel-proxy package provides utilities, including a Proxy app that routes requests by path; unmatched requests continue to the app unchanged.
