Briefly, this error occurs when a Pinned Query in Elasticsearch is not properly configured. A Pinned Query is used to promote selected documents to rank higher in search results. It requires either ‘ids’ or ‘docs’ to specify which documents to promote. If neither is provided, this error is thrown. To resolve this, ensure that your Pinned Query includes either ‘ids’ or ‘docs’. If you’re using ‘ids’, provide the IDs of the documents to promote. If you’re using ‘docs’, provide the actual documents. Make sure the syntax is correct and the specified documents exist in your index.
