Pass Post Id to page

Hey group, I am new here and this is my first topic.

I have Elementor Pro. and I need to do the following:

I have a page that contains a code for editing a post.
the code is as follows:
[advanced_form form=”form_id” post=post_id]

I created a button on Elementor to use to call that page but I don’t know how to dynamically pass the post id to that page. Now when I call that page it creates a new post instead of editing the current one.

As you might have known already I have limited PHP and WordPress knowledge so i will appreciate a detailed baby-steps answer.

Thanks in advance.
