If you have a situation where you have a post creation page and a post editing page, you can use code to redirect from the creation page to the editing page after the post has been created.

<?php
add_action( 'af/form/submission', function ( $form, $fields, $args ) {

  // Check if this is the correct form. If not, stop here.
  if ( $form['key'] !== '{YOUR_FORM_KEY}' ) {
    return;
  }

  // Get the ID of the post that was just created
  $post_id = AF()->submission['post'];

  if ( $post_id ) {
    // Build the edit page URL (replace '/your-edit-page/' with your actual edit page path)
    $redirect_url = add_query_arg( 'post', $post_id, home_url( '/your-edit-page/' ) );

    // Redirect the user
    wp_redirect( $redirect_url );
    exit;
  }

}, 20, 3 );
