HTTP error! status: ${response.status}

Error message

HTTP error! status: ${response.status}

What it means

A "geoPointValue" must be a map containing numeric "latitude" and "longitude" keys. If either key is missing or not a float64 (after JSON decoding, only float64 counts), the converter rejects the value with this error.

Solutions

1. Rename the keys to exactly "latitude" and "longitude".
2. Convert coordinate strings to JSON numbers so they decode as float64.
3. Wrap the pair in a map if it was passed as a plain string.

Example fix

// before
{"geoPointValue": {"lat": "37.4", "lng": "-122.1"}}
// after
{"geoPointValue": {"latitude": 37.4, "longitude": -122.1}}

func validGeoPoint(m map[string]any) bool {
    lat, lok := m["latitude"].(float64)
    lng, gok := m["longitude"].(float64)
    return lok && gok
}

func asGeoPoint(v any) (lat, lng float64, ok bool) {
    m, mok := v.(map[string]any); if !mok { return }
    lat, lok := m["latitude"].(float64); lng, gok := m["longitude"].(float64)
    return lat, lng, lok && gok
}

if _, err := JSONToFirestoreValue(val, client); err != nil {
    if strings.Contains(err.Error(), "invalid geopoint value format") { /* normalize keys/numeric types and retry */ }
}

When it happens

Trigger: Passing {"geoPointValue": {"lat": 37.4, "lng": -122.1}} (wrong key names), {"geoPointValue": {"latitude": "37.4", "longitude": "-122.1"}} (strings not numbers), or {"geoPointValue": "37.4,-122.1"} (not a map).

Common situations: Clients use abbreviated key names (lat/lng); coordinates arrive as strings from CSV or form inputs; the whole geopoint is serialized as a "lat,lng" string.
