PHP Fatal Error

I have a centralized, custom ACF options page built with a few dozen fields that writes and controls various areas of the website. Here is more info on that feature: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/options-page/

There are 3 fields that always throw an error when they are modified / saved from the ACF options page: BlogName, BlogDescription and Timezone_string. Here is my function that saves the ACF fields to those WP Fields.

NOTE: The fields actually save, but the error is coming afterwards, presumably when trying to be logged by AYRO.

update_option('blogname', get_field('platform_title', 'options'), true); // Write custom Site Title
update_option('blogdescription', get_field('platform_subtitle', 'options'), true); // Write custom site Sub-Title Tagline
update_option('timezone_string',get_field('platform_timezone','options'), true); // Write custom timezone 

Here is the PHP error

PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_user_by() in /wp-content/plugins/aryo-activity-log/classes/class-aal-api.php:89

This is a similar error as to the one reported last year – https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/fatal-error-when-programmatically-deactivating-a-plugin/

Is there anything that can be done with this?
