Description

When updating or creating the definition of a storage plugin fails the error

error (unable to create/ update storage)"

isn't descriptive enough. It should provide a hint of what's actually wrong:

• Is the JSON invalid? If so maybe a hint to where the linter encountered the problem
• Unexpected Field?
• Deeper issues could maybe include the stack trace?
