 * [@doekenorg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doekenorg/) Thanks for looking
   into this! For the time being, I’ve decided to just manipulate the repeater data
   as an entry after it’s been submitted. I loop over the repeater fields, separate
   each repeater row into it’s own entry, putting each subfield in it’s own column.
   This solves the issue of dynamic repeater rows and static csv columns. I can 
   always account for a set number of columns and just put each repeater entry as
   it’s own row.
 * May not work for every application, but it’s what was best for my particular 
   project.
 * So thanks again for looking into this, but I’m good for now as far as this particular
   project.

 * [@doekenorg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/doekenorg/) Thanks for the reply.
 * I’m not using a plugin. I’m using the native Gravity Forms Repeater field, implemented
   programmatically, as found here:
 * [https://docs.gravityforms.com/repeater-fields](https://docs.gravityforms.com/repeater-fields)
 * I understand that an export file needs to have a set number of columns and a 
   repeater is dynamic so matching the two up is problematic. My thought is, I can
   set a maximum limit to the Repeater to say 5 to help with that issue. So the 
   export file can have as many static columns up to the limit of what the repeater
   will return.

 * [@danieltj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieltj/) Thank you for the 
   response. For now what I’ve done, is created a JSON object that mirrors what 
   the fields response is after it’s actually saved in the admin area, and I send
   that JSON to the “fields” key when creating the post, which essentially is populating
   and updating the ACF fields and it works now.
 * It’s just unfortunate to have to create my data models twice, once as ACF fields
   and once as a JSON object to post to them upon creation. I was really hoping 
   there’d be a way to “mimic” clicking that “Update” button and thus saving all
   the data to the DB at that point.
