   If you are looking for the post edit url for admin end and you have the post id (suppose $post_id) with you, then you can use the following code for getting the url.

   $post_id = 1731; // For example
   $post_url = add_query_arg( array( 
   	'post' => $post_id, 
   	'action' => 'edit', 
   ), admin_url( 'post.php' ) );
   
   // returns http://example.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1731&action=edit

   The presence of a leading slash in the path doesn’t affect the output, as it will be internally removed. Thus, both calls to admin_url() will yield the same result:

   admin_url( 'test' );  // returns http://example.com/wp-admin/test
   admin_url( '/test' ); // returns http://example.com/wp-admin/test
