Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch receives a request with an unexpected content type in the headers. This could be due to a mismatch between the content type specified in the request and the actual content type of the data. To resolve this issue, ensure that the content type in the request headers matches the actual content type of the data. If you’re using a client library, check its documentation to ensure you’re setting the content type correctly. Also, ensure that any proxies or middleware between your client and Elasticsearch aren’t altering the headers.
