Add row and type fields on the Flexible Content Field when I save

Hello.

I have configured the Flexible Content Field as follows:

Field Type: Flexible Content
Field Name: cf_person (Key: field_xxxxxxx)

Layout
Name: cf_person_set

Fields:
Name: cf_person_text_ja (Key: field_yyyyyy)
Type: WYSIWYG Editor

I want to add a new row to the flexible content and set the value of “cf_person_text_ja” to “Dummy Text” when I save a post.
I want to do this in the functions.php file.

The following code doesn’t work:

function publish_post_transition_person($post_ID) {

  $row = [
    'cf_person_text_ja' => 'Dummy Text',
  ];

  update_field('cf_person_set', $row, $post_ID);

  return false;

}

add_action( 'save_post', 'publish_post_transition_person' );

Maybe it is solved.

update_field('cf_person', [], $post_ID); // reset row

$existing_values = get_field('cf_person', $post_ID);

$new_row = array(
  'acf_fc_layout' => "cf_person_set",
  'cf_person_text_ja' => 'Dummy Text'
);

if ($existing_values) {
  $existing_values[] = $new_row;
} else {
  $existing_values = array($new_row);
}

update_field('cf_person', $existing_values, $post_ID);
