Description

When saving a technique in editor, we have a success message but the metadata.xml is not correctly generated, and so the technique is not available in directive list afterward.

If we look in js debug console, we can see:

Request URL: https://192.168.49.2/rudder/secure/api/ncf
Request Method: POST
Status Code: 500 Server Error
Remote Address: 192.168.49.2:443
Referrer Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade

{
  "action": "updateTechnique",
  "result": "error",
  "errorDetails": "Authorization error: User 'admin' is not allowed to access POST secure/api/ncf" 
}

There is two problems here: we don't get the error in technique editor (we have success but actually it's not the case). This one is managed in ticket: #12210

And we get an error 500 preventing metadata to be created (that ticket).
