app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    image = ShareImage(
        title="Home",
        cloudName="CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME",
        imagePublicId="CLOUDINARY_IMAGE_ID"
    )
    return render_template('index.html', image=image)

@app.route('/posts/<string:slug>')
def posts(slug):
    image = ShareImage(
        title=bySlug.get(slug)['title'],
        cloudName="CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME",
        imagePublicId="CLOUDINARY_IMAGE_ID"
    )
    return render_template('index.html', image=image)

if __name__=="__main__":
    app.run()

Now, you can use the image variable in any img Tag or og:image/twitter:image/image Meta Tags! Note: CLOUDINARY_CLOUD_NAME and CLOUDINARY_IMAGE_ID are respectedly Your Cloudinary Cloud Name and Image Public Id (Including Folder Name) & the bySlug is a Special Variable to find specific posts in a Array of Dictionaries by Slug and it can be achieved by the following Code:

def build_dict(seq, key):
    return dict((d[key], dict(d, index=index)) for (index, d) in enumerate(seq))

bySlug = build_dict(ARRAY_OF_POSTS, key="KEY_OF_SLUG")

# Usage: bySlug(SLUG_OF_POST)['KEY_TO_FIND']
