Answer 1

As per the error and the reason behind the Bad request that it states : The index path corresponding to the specified order-by item is excluded.Hence, you have to add an matching index or a composite index for the sort by query being attempted.
Azure Cosmos DB has an wire protocol version 4.0, 3.0 and legacy support for version 3.2 as Azure Cosmos DB does not host the MongoDB engine. So the possibilities of these errors are only found in Azure Cosmos DB's API for MongoDB
Hence, would request you to refer this for more detailed information: Common errors and solutions
