Hi,

There isn’t really any “source” as I made these changes in the ACF GUI.

I was able to get this from the ACF backup I took of the custom field before I made the change:

{
 "key": "field_5d1471e8f999d",
 "label": "File or Link?",
 "name": "file_or_link",
 "type": "radio",
 "instructions": "",
 "required": 0,
 "conditional_logic": 0,
 "wrapper": {
    "width": "",
    "class": "",
    "id": ""
  },
 "choices": {
    "file": "PDF File",
    "internal link": "Button Link Internal",
    "external link": "Button Link External"
 },
 "allow_null": 0,
 "other_choice": 0,
 "default_value": "",
 "layout": "vertical",
 "return_format": "value",
 "save_other_choice": 0
},

And after I made the change:

{
 "key": "field_5d1471e8f999d",
 "label": "File or Link?",
 "name": "file_or_link",
 "type": "radio",
 "instructions": "",
 "required": 0,
 "conditional_logic": 0,
 "wrapper": {
    "width": "",
    "class": "",
    "id": ""
 },
 "choices": {
    "file": "PDF File",
    "internal link": "Button Link Internal",
    "external link": "Button Link External",
    "blog link": "Button Blog Post"
 },
 "allow_null": 0,
 "other_choice": 0,
 "default_value": "",
 "layout": "vertical",
 "return_format": "value",
 "save_other_choice": 0
},

I would send screen shots but that doesn’t seem possible.

Thanks.
