### Summary
A dynamic downstream pipeline does not work when the downstream pipeline uses generated artifact.
It always fails with error message : "Unable to create pipeline. Undefined error (xxxxxx)".
Artifact is well generated and available.
Error is not related to generated content. Syntax is OK.
I adjusted main pipeline to target a local downstream pipeline. This local is the manually downloaded artifact added in repo. And then it works. It confirms generated pipeline is OK
### Steps to reproduce
<!-- Describe how one can reproduce the issue - this is very important. Please use an ordered list. -->
### Example Project
Using this main pipeline fails in the trigger-dynamic-pipeline job
```
stages:
- build
- downstream-dynamic-pipeline
build_tenant_pipeline:
stage: build
script:
- echo "stages:" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo " - plan" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo "plan-test1:" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo " stage: plan" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo " script:" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo " - echo `"run plan for test1`"" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo " when: manual" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml;
- echo "" | out-file -append dynamic-pipeline.yml
artifacts:
paths:
- dynamic-pipeline.yml
expire_in: 5 minutes
trigger-dynamic-pipeline:
stage: downstream-dynamic-pipeline
trigger:
include:
- artifact: dynamic-pipeline.yml
job: build_tenant_pipeline
```
Generated artifact syntax is OK.
Pasting content in the pipeline editor reports no issue :

### What is the expected *correct* behavior?
Pipeline should display downstream pipeline in UI - instead of error
### Relevant logs and/or screenshots

Based on error ID, greping it from /var/log/gitlab returns :
