  "core": {
    "key": "acf_text_field_uk",
    "name": "Text Field",
    "is_list": false,
    "is_required": false,
    "need_internationalization": false,

    "field_type": "text-field",
    "source_id": null,
    "source_metadata": "{\"is_custom_post_type_field\": true}",  // It is important to identify source_metadata as custom field
    "order_index": 0,
    "help_text": null,
    "editor_metadata": null
  },
  "validation_pattern": ".*",  // Validation required. Here it will accept anything, but we can define our own validation

}
```
