Geofilter on a dataset

I’ve been trying to use the Geofilter.polygon to refine the results in a dataset per this documentation:

https://userguide.opendatasoft.com/en/articles/2257346#:~:text=geofilter.polygon,%2C2.386968)

However it always looks like it does a text search in the records.  Is there a setting I need to activate at the dataset level to accept geofilter options?

Hi,
To ensure geofilters work:
1) Check if the dataset contains valid geographic fields (points, lines, polygons).
2) Try filtering with a smaller area using just a few coordinates to test if it works correctly.
This can help refine your results and avoid large, undefined zones.
