I have a nested field geopoint which contains an array of geopoints like this :  
 ![ge02](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/3/e31385e183d8eaac9234b902153ac1ade803b116.PNG)

 ![geo](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/6/56615976295185ef5f24b637348fd83620e5a9da.PNG)  
The problem that I can't see these 3 geo\_points on kibana  
here is my template:  
"properties" : {  
"@timestamp": { "type": "date", "include\_in\_all": false },  
"@version": { "type": "keyword", "include\_in\_all": false },  
"geoip" : {  
"type" : "geo\_point"  
},  
"geoip\_Dev": {  
"type" : "geo\_point"  
},  
"geoip\_gwy": {  
"type" : "geo\_point"  
},  
"gtwys":{   
"type": "nested",  
"properties": {  
"position": {"type": "geo\_point"},  
"position1": {"type": "geo\_point"}  
}  
}  
}  
and here is my logstash conf  
json {  
source =\> "message"  
}

```
  ruby {
    code => '
      gateways_size = event.get("[gateways]").size
      gateways_size.times do |index|
        event.set("[gtwys][#{index}][position][lat]", event.get("[gateways][#{index}][antennaLatitude]").to_f)
        event.set("[gtwys][#{index}][position][lon]", event.get("[gateways][#{index}][antennaLongitude]").to_f)
		#event.set("[gtwys][position][lat]", event.get("[gateways][#{index}][antennaLatitude]").to_f)
        #event.set("[gtwys][position][lon]", event.get("[gateways][#{index}][antennaLongitude]").to_f)
      end
    '
  }
```

Objects inside arrays are not supported in Kibana. See [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/998](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/998).
