How can a user trigger running GitLab downstream pipeline from upstream pipeline, without permissions to run the downstream pipeline

I need to implement multi-project pipeline trigger in GitLab. Both my upstream & downstream pipelines are GitLab pipelines. Whenever any changes are merged to the master branches of upstream repositories by running upstream pipelines, then the downstream pipeline needs to be re-run on automated basis.

I can use bridge job with triggers, but the PROBLEM is that users who run the upstream pipelines to update the upstream repositories DON'T have enough permissions to run the downstream pipeline. In such a case, how can the multi-project pipeline trigger be implemented.

Please help.

Based on: Multi-project pipelines

The user that created the upstream pipeline needs to have access rights to the downstream project

If a triggered pipeline branch is protected on downstream project, at least "Developer" permission level should be assigned to the member who is triggering the upstream project pipeline

Please see also Project members permissions, Project members permissions section
