Getting error while creating index for elastic search

Question

I am trying to create an elastic search index if it doesn't exist using OnModuleInit (NestJs). It works fine with my local machine but when I am trying to deploy to AWS ES Cluster, this part is giving such an error.

ElasticsearchModule.registerAsync({
          useFactory: async () => ({
            node: process.env.ES_ENDPOINT,
            maxRetries: 3,
            requestTimeout: 60000,
            pingTimeout: 60000,
          }),
        })

    export class ClientElasticSearchModule implements OnModuleInit {
      constructor(private clientSearchService: ClientElasticSearchService) {}
      async onModuleInit() {
        await this.clientSearchService.createIndex();
      }
    }

It is where I am creating an index:

await this.elasticsearchService.indices.create({
          index: clientsIndex,
          body: {
            settings: {
              analysis: {...},
            },
            mappings: {
              properties: {
                name: {
                  type: 'text',
                  fields: {
                    complete: {
                      type: 'text',
                      analyzer: 'autocomplete_analyzer',
                      search_analyzer: 'autocomplete_search_analyzer',
                    },
                  },
                },
              },
            },
          },
        });

Error message:

          attempts: 0,
          aborted: false
        }
      }
    }

Can you share the error message you can get from the ES server logs? — Val

This looks like your AWS Opensearch (same tech under the hood of Elasticsearch) instance is returning a 403. This might mean you need to set up IAM Roles and the correct access for your instance. Please See the AWS Docs
