Yes, Webflow has the ability to save form data as submissions while also redirecting users to a dynamic URL using the 'action' + method = GET. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Create your form in Webflow: Start by designing your form using the Webflow visual editor. Add the desired input fields and make sure to assign them unique names.

  2. Set the form action: In the form settings panel, set the 'action' attribute to the desired dynamic URL. This could be a URL that contains parameters, query strings, or any other dynamic element.

  3. Set the form method: Also in the form settings panel, set the 'method' attribute to "GET". This tells the form to use the GET method when submitting data.

  4. Add a redirect link: To redirect users after the form submission, add a redirect link in your form's success state. You can specify a dynamic URL here based on the form data that was submitted. For example, you can use the data from a form field to construct a dynamic URL.

  5. Set up form submission actions: To save the form data as submissions, you can use Webflow's built-in form submission actions. In the form settings panel, navigate to the 'Form Submission' tab. Here, you can connect your form to a CMS collection or external service to save the form data.

By following these steps, your Webflow form will be able to save form data as submissions while also redirecting users to a dynamic URL using the 'action' + method = GET. This allows you to create dynamic form workflows and send data to various destinations, all while providing a seamless user experience.
