yes I did, here is the code I am using.

function change_post_taxonomy_44582( $post_id ) {
   
    if ( empty($_POST['acf']) ) {
        return;
    }
    
     // get term id from $post_id (only 1 value is allowed, so it returns 1 value only)
    $stored_role = wp_get_post_terms($post_id, 'asproducts_cats');
    // get submitted value from acf form
    $posted_roles = $_POST['acf']['field_59154e83efb0e'];
    // get term_id for the submitted value
   
    $term_id    = get_term_by( 'name', $posted_roles, 'asproducts_cats' );
    // if stored value is not equal to posted value, then update terms
   
    if ( $stored_role[0] != $posted_roles ) {
        wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, $term_id->term_id, 'asproducts_cats' );
    }
}
add_action('acf/save_post', 'change_post_taxonomy_44582', 20);
