I'm getting this error while sending bulks from php client:
Elasticsearch Bulk failed ! cause :
{"error":"ElasticsearchParseException[Failed to derive xcontent from
org.elasticsearch.common.bytes.BytesArray@1]","status":400}
Does anyone has an idea what does it mean ?

It means that your bulk is incorrect. Check its format.
