WordPress Gutenberg, update post content programmatically
I have been starting to testing out Gutenberg editor with both ACF and custom blocks. And I have been looking around to solve my problem but I couldn't find anything about this topic (Maybe my google skills is not good enought)
But my case is this:
I have a custom post type where I want to set a template so they can't move around the blocks and add other blocks and so on. And on this post type around 70% is created by code. Because it is fetching all the information from an API.
Test 1: I have created an ACF block with all the fields I need, and it is working as it should when I create a new post from WP admin. But when I run the update_field function it is saving it to post_meta table as it did before. So my question here is how do I update a field so it saves it to post_content and not to post_meta table.
Test 2: I created custom blocks for all of the fields (convert each ACF field to and block) and set up the template to use these blocks only.
But here I have no idea how update update post_content with PHP or Javascript.
I hope you can help me out with this :) If anything is unclear tell, and I will try to explain it
