What is the ES version being used? It seems the data is too large to be handled by heap memory available to the Elasticsearch node.  
I believe something similar was discussed for 7.x version, you can refer to: [Elasticsearch 7.x circuit breaker - data too large - troubleshoot - Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60075253/elasticsearch-7-x-circuit-breaker-data-too-large-troubleshoot)

Also, from this disucssion forum earlier posts: [CircuitBreakingException - Data too large - Meta Elastic / Elastic Tips and Common Fixes - Discuss the Elastic Stack](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/circuitbreakingexception-data-too-large/243633)
