Mapbox information is not working the way I expect. I have 1 tab that displays a map with clients locations. I have a separate tab that calculates the distance the client is from a user entered zip code - no map used i have it return a list of clients. I am using coordinates for the distance calculation which I now have working smoothly. I expected the mapbox to use the coordinates but the pins don’t always update if the user update their profile with different coordinates. I cant’ seem to identify which columns of data mapbox uses to display its pins. ---

Map pins are set using the address setting for the map. That setting should be pointing to either an address or to a set of coordinates. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/4/1/41d1c3683196c730af591f65a44ce55558f04fba.png) ---
