Describe your question

Hi!

Post types permissions are both No for a CPT via an External Connection created in ACF.

Any idea on how to make that a Yes? I'm sure I'm overlooking something simple.

Thanks for the question. The main thing here is that the post type needs registered with show_in_rest set to true (see https://github.com/10up/distributor?tab=readme-ov-file#custom-post-type-support). That would be the first thing to check here.

In addition, the post type needs to be the same between sites in order for it to work, so ensuring the same arguments are used on both sides is key (most importantly, the name/slug of the post type)
