 * We use an import tool and this does not trigger a relationship on the other post
   type after programmatically adding/updating posts, please let me know how we 
   can programmatically update all posts to trigger a bi-directional relationship.
 * Thanks!

 * Doing this on an import may not work 100% since it works by IDs. You would need
   to know the ID of the posts that are being added to the relationship.
 * In order to trigger this plugin to do its thing the update of the acf field must
   be triggered by whatever is doing the import, usually this happens by calling`
   update_field()` on the relationship or post object field.
