So I have generated a repeater field in my custom post type which is products but when I tried to save it and when the page refreshed all the added data is gone.

Here is my code:

function wpt_add_product_metaboxes() {
	global $post;
	$unique_terms = array(); 
	$postID              =   $post->ID;
	$have_terms          =   get_the_terms($postID, 'product_attributes');

	if($have_terms):
		$parent_terms  = wp_get_post_terms( $postID,'product_attributes', array( 'parent' => 0, 'orderby' => 'id', 'order' => 'DESC', 'hide_empty' => false ) ); 	
		#print("<pre>".print_r($parent_terms,true)."</pre>");
		$ctr = 0;
		foreach ($parent_terms as $p_term):
			 $custom_taxnomies_child = wp_get_post_terms($postID, 'product_attributes', array( 'parent' => 66, 'orderby' => 'slug', 'hide_empty' => false ));
			  foreach($custom_taxnomies_child as $cterm){
			  	if( ! in_array( $cterm->term_id, $unique_terms ) ){

			  		array_push( $unique_terms, $cterm->term_id );
			  		$ctr++;
			  		acf_add_local_field( array (
			            'key'               => 'field_tab_size_'.$ctr,
			            'label'             => $cterm->name,
			            'name'              => 'store_sizes_'.$ctr,
			            'type'              => 'tab',
			            'parent'            => 'field_5bd14c9349930',
			            'instructions'      => '',

			                'id'                => '',
			            ),
			            'collapsed'         => '',
			            'min'               => '',
			            'max'               => '',
			        ));
			  		 /**

			        acf_add_local_field( array (

			            'label'             => 'Product Sizes and Prices',
