ingest_document: failed to serialize payload: {e}

Error message

ingest_document: failed to serialize payload: {e}

What it means

serde_json::to_value failed while serializing the DocumentInput payload for the ingest RPC. Practically unreachable for these plain string/timestamp fields; logged as payload_serialize_failed before re-raising.

Solutions

1. Check the chained serde error for the unserializable field
2. Treat as a bug if reproducible — DocumentInput is plain data
3. Retry the ingest once to rule out transient memory corruption
