Hi,  
I'm facing the error related to the Elasticsearch::Transport. I'm using searchkick gem in rails.

elasticsearch version 7.17.4

When i'm doing reindex using searchkick gem it returned this error

```auto
Elasticsearch::Transport::Transport::Errors::BadRequest: [400] {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"The bulk request must be terminated by a newline [\\n]"}],"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"The bulk request must be terminated by a newline [\\n]"},"status":400}

```

Welcome to our community! 😃

Searchkick is a community built client so I am not sure if we can directly help unfortunately, have you tried asking the author?
