Hi there

I’m receiving the correct string for location:

but in data explorer doesn’t show up:

Any idea?

The attribute has the correct config

This is likely due to the aggregation you have selected in the Data Explorer. It defaults to `MEAN`, and since there’s no concept of averaging GPS coordinates, the field is left blank.

You can try changing the aggregation to `FIRST` or `LAST`. You can also change it to `NONE`, which will not perform any aggregations on the data and will return the raw reported values.
