I have created a custom post and fields. Now I need to create these posts via an automation. I need some help/direction in creating posts through php code. I can use WordPress function to create posts but I need some guidance on adding field data and taxonomy to the posts via code.

Hi there

You would be using the standard WordPress API for this rather than any specific Toolset functions.

As you already know, you use wp_update_post to save the standard fields of a post (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_update_post/).

To save custom fields, you would use update_post_meta (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/update_post_meta/). The one thing that you need to be aware of here is that if you have set up custom fields with Types, then the corresponding meta key has a 'wpcf-' prefix, so a 'priority' custom field would have a key of 'wpcf-priority'.

For taxonomies I assume you already created the custom taxonomies and terms, and will be programmatically assigning them. For that there are a number of functions you could use, with wp_set_post_terms your best starting point: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_set_post_terms/
