Hello,
I use a file field type and I was wondering what are the differences between 3 RETURN VALUE choices (array, file URL, attachment ID)?
Cheers;

the difference is what you get when you use get_field

try to look yourself

$value = get_field('your_file_field_name');
echo '<pre>';
print_r( $value );
echo '</pre>';

it is either a ID, a URL, or a array that contains both and probably even more infos
