Geolocation not indexed in Algolia v2.3.1 on Umbraco 13 (no _geoloc or geolocation field)

Questions
1

After upgrading from Umbraco 10 to Umbraco 13, the directory indexing no longer writes any geo-coordinates to Algolia. Previously (on Umbraco 10) each record included _geoloc (lat/lng) and radius searches worked. On Umbraco 13, the indexed JSON has no _geoloc or geolocation attribute, so ?query=London&distance=25 returns 0 results.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Umbraco.Cms.Integrations.Search.Algolia v2.3.1 on Umbraco 13.4.1
  2. Add and register a RidingCentreRecordBuilder subclass of BaseLocationRecordBuilder:

csharp

CopyEdit

builder.Services.AddScoped<IRecordBuilder<RidingCentrePage>, RidingCentreRecordBuilder>();
  1. Configure the directory in back-office → Package Settings → “Indexing Directory” → click Build.
  2. In the Algolia Dashboard, open the index and click Browse.

Expected
Each record should contain a geo-attribute (_geoloc or geolocation) with latitude/longitude derived from location_googlemaps.

Actual
No geo-attribute is present. The location_googlemaps field in the record is [null], and there is no _geoloc or geolocation entry.

Custom code

csharp

CopyEdit

// CustomAlgoliaComposer.cs
public class CustomAlgoliaComposer : IComposer
{
    public void Compose(IUmbracoBuilder builder)
    {
        builder.Services.AddScoped<IRecordBuilder<RidingCentrePage>, RidingCentreRecordBuilder>();
        // … other record builders …
    }
}

// RidingCentreRecordBuilder.cs
public class RidingCentreRecordBuilder 
    : BaseLocationRecordBuilder, IRecordBuilder<RidingCentrePage>
{
    public RidingCentreRecordBuilder(IPublishedSnapshotAccessor acc) 
        : base(acc) { }

    protected override string GetLocationAlias()
        => RidingCentrePage
             .GetModelPropertyType(_publishedSnapshotAccessor, x => x.Location_googlemaps)
             .Alias;
}

Sample indexed record

{
  "objectID": "ffb773db-c9d5-471d-ac63-31f6b63f3048",
  "name": "Little Munden Equestrian",
  "data": {
    "location_googlemaps": [null],
    "clients": [null],
    // …
  },
  // no _geoloc or geolocation
}

Notes

  • The same code works on Umbraco 10 with v2.3.1 of the package.
  • It appears geo-mapping via BaseLocationRecordBuilder is not being invoked on Umbraco 13.

Questions

  1. Is there a breaking change in v2.3.1 or Umbraco 13 that disables BaseLocationRecordBuilder-based geo-indexing?
  2. What’s the correct way to restore _geoloc (or geolocation) indexing in this version?
