Some extra information, the field object appears empty, so it doesn’t know it’s a repeater (in the frontend). First get the field key:
meta_id post_id meta_key meta_value
367 62 _my_repeater field_56e045f278755
Then get the object:
$field = get_field_object('field_56e045f278755');
var_dump($field);
output: bool(false)
