| ## Bulk ingestion with base64-encoded vectors [bulk_vectors] | ||
|
|
||
| When ingesting dense vectors, you can encode float arrays as base64 strings for more efficient transfer. The client's `serializer` provides `encodeFloat32Vector` and `decodeFloat32Vector` methods that encode IEEE-754 float32 values in big-endian byte order. |

I would add a note here that support for ingesting base64-encoded float arrays is available starting in Elasticsearch 9.3.

Perfect! Since merging this will update the production docs, we can merge it when we publish transport 9.3.0 to npm. Elasticsearch 9.3 isn't out in its stable form until January, but the note you added makes that clear enough.
