input {  
beats {  
port =\> 7467  
}  
}

filter {  
geoip {  
source =\> "dest.ip"  
target =\> "dest.ip\_location"

# database =\> "/opt/geoip/GeoLite2-City.mmdb" (ive tried with this and with the default that comes with logstash.

```
    add_field => ["[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][longitude]}" ]
    add_field => ["[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][latitude]}" ]
  }

```

mutate {  
convert =\> ["[geoip][coordinates]", "float"]  
}

}

This is all on 5.0 ELK

What's not working exactly? You've provided very little helpful information.

Use `[dest][ip]` etc if you want to denoted nested fields.
