I am very glad to hear the field keys are stable! I’ll eventually do some experiments to set up a custom API endpoint to retrieve field metadata based on field group and/or name, and will relay what I find if the ACF keys are accessible in a different manner for blocks. I hope that’s more of a surface level distinction on the location rules for the field group. I wonder if anyone has made the acf-field-group and acf-field CPTs accessible via the REST API? ty for your help!
Thank you, @hube2, this is super helpful and I really appreciate you taking the time to walk me through the internal data structures. I had gleaned a few of these points from your other posts in the forum, but this really pulls it all together.
One last question: are group/field keys stable (e.g., all references to a particular block type attribute/field are identical, regardless of post or block instance w/in a post) or are they dynamic per post/block?
I hope this is useful information for others in the future, and thank you for all you do!
Noting that the WP block-types endpoint would seem to be a good place for this data to live, but no detail is included by default in the attributes field. There’s a data item but it just specifies:
"data": {"type": "object", "default": []},
