This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
How to programmatically connect posts using a post reference field.
Solution:
There is some duplication with the post reference field, it is stored both as post meta (using wpcf-field-slug as key) but also in the associations table Toolset manages post relationships with, and so as well as setting the post meta value it is also necessary to use toolset_connect_posts to join the posts. (The first argument is the slug of the post relationship field.)

Post Reference and Post relation are they same?
I have custom fields of type post reference, and I am trying to import products from csv and for that I have created custom plugin and when I check the wp_termmeta table in database meta value is being updated, but the wp_toolset_associations table does not have any row for the relationship.
