I am confused on how to grab the relationship field from user profile.

I have a custom post type called Companies with a field called longname. A relationship field added to user profile called user_company.

I am trying to get the company of logged in user.

All I have is

$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$company = get_field('user_company', 'user_' . $user_id->ID);
echo $company;

$company = get_field('user_company', 'user_' . $user_id);

After doing a var_dump on $company, the reason why echoing $compmany wasn’t pulling anythng was because it was a wp object or wp array (I’m not sure of the correct terminology.

I had to select the post_title in order for it to work. So I ended up with this:

function user_organization($atts) {
	$user_id = get_current_user_id();
	$user_company = get_field('user_company', 'user_' . $user_id);
	echo $user_company->post_title;
}
add_shortcode('user_organization_info', 'user_organization');
