You need to write a script which reads every line of the CSV file, convert it to json document, add the json to a bulk request and from time to time send the bulk request to elasticsearch.  
Before that, you need to define the mapping for your index.

Otherwise, you can also read [https://www.elastic.co/blog/importing-csv-and-log-data-into-elasticsearch-with-file-data-visualizer](https://www.elastic.co/blog/importing-csv-and-log-data-into-elasticsearch-with-file-data-visualizer)

Or use [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/csv-processor.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/csv-processor.html)
