In Elasticsearch8.5.1, sorted by longitude and latitude, my data format is:  
Post\_info\_address\_index:[

{

LatALng:{

Lat: 37.520804,

Lon: 121.219555

}

},

{

LatALng:{

Lat: 37.520496,

Lon: 121.220644

}

}

]

I use DSL statements in Kibana to achieve:  
"sort": [  
{  
"\_geo\_distance": {  
"order": "asc",  
"unit": "km",  
"nested": {  
"path": "post\_info\_address\_index"  
},  
"mode": "min",  
"distance\_type": "plane",  
"post\_info\_address\_index.latALng": {  
"lat": 37.550855034722225,  
"lon": 121.24978407118056  
}  
}  
}  
]

But in Java, I use the ElasticsearchClient client's sort sorting, and there is no nested

Hi, it sounds like this could be an issue in the elasticsearch-java client. Would you mind posting this as a new issue here: [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-java/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&projects=&template=bug.yml](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-java/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&projects=&template=bug.yml)
