CS Forms ACF Post Update Action

Support
#1

Hi,

I am building a form in CS Forms and am having difficulty with an ACF Post Update action in my Action Group. My set-up is like this:

  • Email Action
  • Post Create
  • ACF Post Field Update
  • Redirect

Steps 1 and 2 work fine. Step 3 (updating ACF) fails, which in turn fails the redirect. I am pretty sure it is to do with the ACF Post Field Update settings not being quite right:

  • Field - {{ acf.post_field({“field”:“business_description”,“post”:""}) }}
  • Data - {{ form.data({“key”:“business_description”}) }}
  • ID Selector - {{ form_action.response({“depth”:“1”}) }} - I have also tried without the depth

Do you have any guidance on where I am going wrong? The above is a simplified action group chain, as I have about 10 ACF Post Field Updates in total.

Thanks,
Christopher

Hi @ruenel,

I am aware the ID is likely to be the issue. The documentation is quite basic on this sort of thing!

Details in SN.
