Other than those on the top, you can use JavaScript to fetch the details from the server. html file

server.js

app.get('/test',(req,res)=>{
    //res.sendFile(__dirname +"/views/test.html",);
    res.json({title:"api",message:"root"});
})

app.get('/render',(req,res)=>{
    res.sendFile(__dirname +"/views/test.html");
})
