location
Location · object

A geographic location, expressed in latitude and longitude. This can represent a home address, an office location... Each entity is limited to having a single location. To get the latitude and longitude for a given address, you can use the Google Maps Geocoding API or a predefined lookup table (for example by zip code). If location is present in matching or filters, it will act as an override for geo-distance calculations.
