Django Python 3.* : Reverse for 'view' not found

Question

I have a first_view that takes id argument, And second_view that redirects to first_view after interpreting some code.

views.py:

def first_view(request, id):
    #do something
    return render(request, 'sometemplate.html')

def second_view(request, id):
    #do something
    return redirect('first_view', id=id)

when I try to go through second_view I get this error:

Reverse for 'first_view' not found.

urls.py:

    path('first_view/<int:pnr_id>/', views.first_view, name='first_view'),
    path('second_view/<int:pnr_id>/', views.second_view, name='second_view'),

I've tried these syntax for redirect too:

1. return redirect('first_view', id)
2. return redirect('first_view', args=[id])
3. return redirect('first_view', args=[id=id])
4. return redirect(first_view(id=id))
5. return redirect(first_view(id))
6. return redirect(first_view(request=request,id=id))
7. return redirect(first_view(request,id))

Nothing works! any support will be appreciated.

here is the issue to save your time..

when you call redirect() make sure that you are passing the url name not the view def name
