There is nothing special about manually saving a post that means it should be the only way for ACF to generate these meta values.

This is exactly what made me to write this post!

Thank’s for very detailed explanation. But I’m still wondering is it possible to programmatically do the same “magic” which happens when the post is saved manually.
