Extract coordinates fro organization units- Solved

Hello, I’m trying to extract coordinates for the organization unit but the API doesn’t return any coordinates, it only returns the following columns; code, name, id.

This is the api I’m using https://play.dhis2.org/2.35.13/api/organisationUnits.json?fields=id,name,code,featureType,coordinates&paging=false

Kindly assist where necessary. @stratosilva @Edward_Robinson @Gassim

Hi @Kenyuri,
Thank you for your post!
actually, please try to use geometry property:
https://play.dhis2.org/2.35.13/api/organisationUnits.json?fields=id,name,code,geometry&paging=false


The api request you posted is requesting featureType and coordinates from the /organisationUnits endpoint but if you look at the api/schema, the following properties are the only ones supported:

Organisation Unit

properties
parent
publicAccess
type
path
lastUpdated
children
