Conditional logic on taxonomy field and term IDs in different environments?

I’m using conditional logic on a taxonomy field (via term IDs) to show/hide additional fields that may/may not be required (based on the taxonomy term selected). No problems here.

The problem I’ve run into, though, is that these term IDs change when they’re created in different environments (local, development, staging and production). And because I’m also using local JSON to store ACF fields, I can’t just update my conditional logic’s term IDs per-environment (as that’s all stored in the JSON files, in GIT, and staging/production don’t have write-access for these files and can only be updated via GIT).

So, wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and if they’ve found a way to deal with this?

Thanks,
Kristin.
