@Permian who is editing questions: thank you for taking the time to make the images appear directly in the posts. Please make sure to use the exact same link in your edit, otherwise there is ambiguity about what has changed.. I see that the new image is exactly like the previous, but it requires to open the 2 images to see that there is no difference. — ghybs

This can be caused by not configuring a jobs authorization policy correctly.

Check either the downstream job to see its configuration, or go to

Manage Jenkins-> Configure Global Security -> Access Control for Builds -> Configure Build Authorizations in Project Configuration

And check the global settings.

After finding the parent settings, go to the project giving the error select the same configuration in the section that looks like :

If this still does not work, you might also need to make sure that the user has the adequate permissions if you are using matrix based security.

Manage Jenkins-> Configure Global Security -> Authorization

And in the authorization matrix make sure the necessary user has build permissions
