Prevent auto conversion to GeoPoint

[Stev3nsen]

Hey guys, thanks for your awesome work. I have simple question. See below.

Minimal Code to Reproduce the Problem

const firestore = FirestoreApp.getFirestore(email, key, projectId);

function myFunction() {
  const document = {
    location: {
      "latitude": 10.1,
      "longitude": 10.1
    }
  }

  firestore.createDocument("Test", document)
}

Explain the Problem in Detail

When i create a document that contains a map with following structure

  const document = {
    "someName": {
      "latitude": 10.1,
      "longitude": 10.1
    }
  }

a document field gets some kind of auto converted to a geopoint type.

Expected result

In Firestore console i expected my location field as map structure and not as geopoint.

Actual result

The location field is automatically converted in a geopoint. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?

It is automatic.. it works off of Duck Typing (source). If you don't want to do that, you'll have to rename the keys, or add an additional property since it's typically beneficial to use the built-in storage type that Firestore provides.
