Hello Toolset Support,

Currently, I am using Toolset Repeatable Group with a "number" field to retrieve information via an API.

I have used the following code to retrieve the values of the fields into an array.

<?php
	$section_ids = toolset_get_related_posts(
	    get_the_ID(),
	    'pznsgroup',
	    'parent',
	    100,
	    0,
	    array(),
	    'post_id',
	    'child'
	);

	$new_pzn = array();

    if ( $section_ids ){
    foreach ( $section_ids as $section_id ){
        $section = get_post_meta( $section_id, '', false );
        $section_content = $section["wpcf-pznnumber-ratgeber"][0];

        array_push($new_pzn, $section_content);

    	}
     }

	if ( $new_pzn ){


		foreach ( $new_pzn as $single_new_pzn ){

			[... API stuff..]

?>

Upon getting the API results I have noticed that when I try to change the order of the Repeatable Fields, the end result/display is the same.
I there any way you can guide me on how to make the order functionality work?
Unfortunately, the site in question is a staging site and the access to it is limited.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Do you mean that you want to display the items of the repeating field on the frontend based on the order which you set it from backend? If this is correct:
==>
The Repeating field group stores the order of repeating field items with the meta key: toolset-post-sortorder

So, you need to adjust the code as given under:

 $section_ids = toolset_get_related_posts(
        get_the_ID(),
        'pznsgroup',
        'parent',
        100,
        0,
        array('meta_key'=>'toolset-post-sortorder'),
        'post_id',
        'child',
         'meta_value_num',
         
    );
