// Define a Geometry object.
var geometry = ee.Geometry({
  'type': 'Polygon',
  'coordinates':
    [[[-122.081, 37.417],

      [-122.084, 37.418],
      [-122.089, 37.416]]]
});

// Apply the serialize method to the Geometry object.
var geometrySerialize = geometry.serialize();

// Print the result to the console.
print('geometry.serialize(...) =', geometrySerialize);

// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(geometry,
             {'color': 'black'},
