Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch encounters an invalid value for a specific field during indexing or querying. This could be due to a mismatch in data types, incorrect date formats, or a value that exceeds the allowed range. To resolve this, ensure that the data type of the value matches the mapping defined in the index. If it’s a date field, check the date format. If it’s a numeric field, make sure the value is within the allowed range. Also, consider using a script to validate data before indexing.
