Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch receives an invalid time format. This could be due to incorrect date-time formatting in the data being indexed or a mismatch between the date-time format in the mapping and the actual data. To resolve this, ensure that the date-time format in your data matches the format specified in your index mapping.
