Hi @tmslara.a. Sorry for the slow response, but I think you are probably right about the versioning error. Es-hadoop/spark packaging is a bit confusing. The `elasticsearch-hadoop-8.11.3.jar` contains a default version of es-spark that is probably not appropriate for your setup. You want to use `[elasticsearch-spark-30_2.13-8.11.3.jar](https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.elasticsearch/elasticsearch-spark-30_2.13/8.11.3)` if you are running scala 2.13, or `[elasticsearch-spark-30_2.12-8.11.3.jar](https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.elasticsearch/elasticsearch-spark-30_2.12/8.11.3)` if you are running scala 2.12.
