You cannot insert an array of documents that way. Either insert one document at a time or use the [bulk API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.2/docs-bulk.html), which will require your data to be adapted to the required format but does accept multiple documents in a single request.
