i was trying to use bulkprocessor with java high level client. I copied the demo code in [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/current/java-rest-high-document-bulk.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/current/java-rest-high-document-bulk.html).However, it tells that it can't work and shows that there is no request added to bulkrequest. then i add one more line of codes as follows

```auto
bulkRequest.add(new IndexRequest("articles", "article", String.valueOf(j)).source(lineTxt, XContentType.JSON));
bulkProcessor.add(new IndexRequest("articles", "article", String.valueOf(j)).source(lineTxt, XContentType.JSON));

```

then it works. i dont why? it is supposed that only use bulkProcessor.add which will lead to the bulkRequest's addition of new request. Anyone helps?

I'm not sure I understand the question or the problem.

Anyway, here is how I'm using the bulk processor:

Create bulk processor:

Save a Java bean in elasticsearch:

> <https://github.com/dadoonet/legacy-search/blob/02-bulk/src/main/java/fr/pilato/demo/legacysearch/dao/ElasticsearchDao.java#L80-L83>

Hoe this helps.
