  Hi i’m trying to do a field update for a Post Object field type.
  Something like this:

  $doctor = get_field('doctor', $post_ID); //doctor is a Post Object field type.
  if( $doctor ){
  	update_field('field_548ee65c7d1ea', $doctor, $post_ID);
  }

  Hi @oleggen,

  Since the Post Object field contains an array of values, you will need to pass an array of values to the Update_field() something like the following:

  $doctor = get_field($field_key, $post_id);
  $value[] = array(//your_values);
  update_field( $field_key, $value, $post_id );

  You should also use try using the field_key on the get_field() function.
