Text label with text data doesn't work in Geomap

Grafana Geomap Panel
1

We’re trying to display some geodata with text labels. Latitude and Longitude get processed correctly, however a text field is displayed as NaN even though it actually contains text. When we switch it to numeric or date/time data, it gets displayed correctly. Is is by design or a bug?

Welcome

What version of grafana are you using?
Can you share a sample obfuscated data from the api as is, json data I assume?

Sure!
Grafana 9.4.7
Example of data:

{
	"map": [
		{
			"id": "VirtualTestDevice_last",
			"androidID": "aad2c8e8141a90e5",
			"clientAlias": "VirtualTestDevice",
			"lat": -34.0340967,
			"long": 151.0876983,
			"elev": 0.0,
			"timestamp": "2023-05-04T13:03:35.714+00:00"
		}
	]
}

Thank you!

I’ve found what the issue was. Silly me!
I made this panel by copying another and forgotten to update the units:

Obviously, it couldn’t parse text to time
