Yes. With Wix Automations, you can choose from a variety of actions that you want to happen when you receive new submissions from your custom form. For example, you could receive an email, send data via webhooks, connect third-party web apps like Google Sheets, or automatically reply back. 

To set up automations for CMS form submissions, first ensure the input elements of your form are set up correctly. Then, go to Automations in your site's dashboard and select the CMS form submitted trigger. Set up the actions you want to automate, such as sending emails or creating contacts. This allows you to manage form submissions efficiently.

To enable site members to update their own submissions, set your collection permissions to 'Advanced' and check the 'Update' option for the 'Item's creator' role. This allows members to edit only the items they created. Ensure your dataset mode is set to 'Read & Write' so that the connected elements can read and update content.
