Using app in another environment

Hi all,
I'd like to know if this is possible (and safe) to use function of an
app in a another application.
I explain myself : I'd like to create 3 REST applications which return
json document :
* blog
* bug tracker
* user
Those are example. For instance, I'd be able to create a blog post
using REST like this :
/blogpost/create?title="hello"&body="world"
Those apps are flask apps and will deal with the database.
Now, I'd like to create a mashup application which will use all
previous 3 core apps to display blog post, tracker and handle users.
I could make this mashup in pure HTML5/CSS/Javascript but I'd like to
use flask to handle session jinja templates etc...
Is this possible to import all fonctions from my 3 previous app and
use them with the python way or should I use an HTTP parser to get my
docs ?
Can I do for example:
>>> from blog import get_blogposts
>>> def list_blogpost(author):
... # will fetch all blogpost from the blog app
... docs = get_blogpost(author=author)
... return render_template('display_blogposts', docs=docs)
Is it safe to do this ?
N.
