Description
### Version Information
Server Version: 2.2.1 & 2.2.0
CLI Version (for CLI related issue): 2.2.0
### Environment
OSS
### What is the expected behaviour?
Just upgraded from v1 Hasura to v2. Had schema changes via console disabled. For some reason, in v2 I can no longer update role permissions along with any other metadata related functions. Enabling "Allow Postgres schema changes via console" suddenly makes it all work again.
If it's disabled, and I try to do any changes I get the following error:
Once "Allow Postgres schema changes via console" is enabled, it starts working fine again.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the permission and metadata update failure on Hasura v2.2.0 or v2.2.1 with “Allow Postgres schema changes via console” disabled, then compare it with the setting enabled. Done means role-permission and other metadata changes work without allowing Postgres schema changes through the console.
