Error Details:

**java.io.IOException: Unable to parse response body for Response{requestLine=POST /\_bulk?timeout=1m HTTP/1.1, [host=eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com](http://host=eu-west-1.es.amazonaws.com), response=HTTP/1.1 200 OK}**

Tried to investigate and I see the object send is **org.elasticsearch.action.bulk.Response** rather than the expected is **org.elasticsearch.action.bulk.BulkResponse**

Looked into the documentations as well but no luck.  
Some important information on dependency and es method we are trying to execute from our Spring Boot Application:

java 11  
spring-boot-starter-parent 2.5.6  
spring-data-elasticsearch 4.2.6  
elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client 7.12.1  
org.elasticsearch 7.12.1

**code: BulkResponse bulkResponse = elasticsearchClient.bulk(bulkRequest,RequestOptions.DEFAULT);**

Welcome!

According to the URL, you are not using Elasticsearch 7.12.1 but another distribution which is not supported here. You must ask your vendor about this.

BTW did you look at [Cloud by Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/cloud), also available if needed from [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/Elasticsearch-Inc-Elasticsearch-Service-on-Elastic/B01N6YCISK), [Azure Marketplace](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/elastic.ec-azure?tab=Overview) and [Google Cloud Marketplace](https://console.cloud.google.com/marketplace/details/endpoints/elasticsearch-service.gcpmarketplace.elastic.co)?

Cloud by elastic is one way to have access to **all features** , all managed by us. Think about what is there yet like Vector Search, Security, Monitoring, Reporting, SQL, Canvas, Maps UI, Alerting and built-in solutions named [Observability](https://www.elastic.co/observability), [Security](https://www.elastic.co/security) and what is coming next 🙂 ...
