We are increasingly using automation from our agents to control Devonthink. For example, we have an agent who is able to research our complete set of databases to search for a given asset. If he finds that a database is not open, he will open it. But if that database happens to have some minor integrity problem like a missing file, a warning dialogue comes up and that interrupts our process.

It would be great if optionally we could make those warning dialogues not blocking.

These warnings do not appear if the databases are properly closed and that‘s highly recommended. Only databases which were not properly closed are automatically verified after opening.

I totally understand that; it would just be nice if those warnings - like also for missing files etc. - would not be blocking, or could be chosen to not be blocking. Not all of them warrant immediate attention.
