Some folder can’t be selected for the database, but some can, such as Obsidian

You cannot create a database in any cloud-synced location.

But as you see, the folder named Obsidian in iCloud is highlight.
I can create a database in this folder.

Well, don’t. DEVONthink is designed to use a local database only. Placing the database on a server, whether cloud or semi-local, will cause data corruption at some point. The only exception is for a wired NAS.

Creating, I guess is one thing. Using without much failure (due to how syncing works and how DEVONthink not designed to do that, and is documented) is another thing.
