Briefly, this error occurs when there’s an issue with the role-based access control in Elasticsearch. It could be due to incorrect role assignments or insufficient permissions for a specific action. To resolve this, you can check the assigned roles and permissions for the user making the request. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform the action. If not, you may need to modify the role or assign a different role to the user. Also, check the Elasticsearch security settings and ensure they are correctly configured.

                            arrayToCommaDelimitedString(roleNames); action; arrayToCommaDelimitedString(indices.get());
                            message.getClass().getSimpleName(); opaqueId());
