Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch is unable to convert an object into a format that can be stored or transmitted. This could be due to incompatible data types, large data size, or incorrect configuration. To resolve this issue, you can: 1) Check the data types of your fields and ensure they are compatible with Elasticsearch. 2) Reduce the size of your data if it’s too large. 3) Review your Elasticsearch configuration settings for any errors. 4) Ensure that the object you’re trying to serialize is serializable.

} catch (IOException e) {
logger.error(new ParameterizedMessage("[{}] Error serialising {}"; jobId; resultType); e);
}
if (bulkRequest.numberOfActions() >= JobRenormalizedResultsPersister.BULK_LIMIT) {
executeRequest();
}
