Problem posting GeoPoint to parse.com

[Maryna Brodina]

Hello! In mapping please try to add JS code for "location"

Also check whether you secret keys from parse.com are correct
Using FireBug or Chrome Developer Tools check what did you get from server

[David Fung]

I am sure the secret keys are correct due to to other data fields could be submitted. The java script is inserted and googlemap1 object is created but no success. The app. is shared and you are welcome to visit it. Thanks!

[Maryna Brodina]

Ok, thank's. We'll take a look. Did you check the responce from parse.com using FireBug or Chrome Developer Tools?

[David Fung]

I found the user id data could be posted to the db but the geopoint data could not be posted.

I think this is the same issue with posting PUSH data to parse....an array isn't supported in the REST UI of tiggzi

You can create the array in JavaScript, as Marina posted here: https://getsatisfaction.com/tiggzi/to...

Due to the uid could be updated in the DB, ie the secret key are correct. Three syntax are tried without the Geopoint data submission successful.

return {"type":"GeoPoint", "latitude": theLat, "longitude": theLng};
return {"type":"GeoPoint", "latitude": "'+theLat+'", "longitude": "'+theLng+'"};
return {"__type":"GeoPoint", "latitude": '+theLat+', "longitude": '+theLng+'};

However, if the fix value are replaced, the GeoPoint could be updated
return{ "__type":"GeoPoint", "latitude":40.0, "longitude":-30.0 };

Try this:

code
var jsonback = {};
jsonback ["__type"] = "Geopoint&quot
jsonback ["latitude"] = theLat;
jsonback ["longitude"] = theLng;

return JSON.stringify(jsonback);
/code

Sorry, it doesn't work.

Looked at this more...

This is what is sent from the browser:
code
{ " location":"{ \ "__type \ ": \ " GeoPoint \ ", \ " latitude \ ": 10,\ "longitude \ ":20 } "}
/code

It's a valid JSON string. I believe Parse should decode it on their side. I'll find out. Or, it's something we would fix.
