I have tried this code in Magento 2.3.4

1. created events.xml in Dapl\Shortdurability\etc\adminhtml

2.created Productsaveafter.php in Dapl\Shortdurability\Observer.

<?php

namespace Dapl\Shortdurability\Observer;



    use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;

    use Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Action;

    use Magento\CatalogInventory\Model\Stock\StockItemRepository;



class Productsaveafter implements ObserverInterface

    {    

    private $action;

    private $stockItemRepository;

   

    public function __construct(

        StockItemRepository $stockItemRepository,

        Action $action

    )

    {

        $this->action = $action;

        $this->stockItemRepository = $stockItemRepository;

     

    }

    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)

    {

        $_product = $observer->getProduct(); 

        $_id = $_product->getId(); // for Id

        $_shortdurability = $_product->getShortdurability();

        $_visibility = $_product->getVisibility();

        $_qty = $this->stockItemRepository->get($_id);

        $quantity = $_qty->getQty();

        if(($_shortdurability == 1) && ($quantity == 0))

        {

            $this->action->updateAttributes([$_id], ['visibility' => 1], 0);

            

        } else {

            $this->action->updateAttributes([$_id], ['visibility' => 4], 0);

            //$this->action->updateAttributes([$_id], ['quantity_and_stock_status' => ['is_in_stock' => 1]], 1);

        }

    }   

}

Hi. I can't use save method to set IsInStock attribute value. Because, it's going to infinite loop. finaly i have tried every set method. But stock status has not changed.
i have also tried updateStockItemBySku($sku, $stockItem), updateAttributes([$_id], ['quantity_and_stock_status' => ['is_in_stock' => 1]], 1).
please, help me. I have searched about it from google, still i am not able to update IsInStock attribute of product, in Magento 2.3.4.

My Answer:
creating a custom observer in Magento 2.

First, create a new module or use an existing one. Then, create a new PHP file for your observer class.

In this file, you can define your observer class and method to update the IsInStock attribute. Here is an example code snippet:

php

namespace Vendor\Module\Observer;

use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;
use Magento\Catalog\Model\ProductFactory;

class UpdateIsInStock implements ObserverInterface
{
protected $productFactory;

public function __construct(
ProductFactory $productFactory
) {
$this->productFactory = $productFactory;
}

public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
{
$product = $observer->getEvent()->getProduct();
$productId = $product->getId();

// Update IsInStock attribute
$productModel = $this->productFactory->create()->load($productId);
$productModel->setIsInStock(1); // Set IsInStock to true
$productModel->save();
}
}


Don't forget to add the necessary configuration in your module's `etc/events.xml` file to link the observer to the event you want to trigger it.

After creating the observer class and configuring it properly, the `execute` method will be called whenever the specified event occurs, and it will update the IsInStock attribute of the product accordingly.
