We can open Revit files on Autodesk forge but recently we have run into a Revit file that have content from a third party plugin. When you open the file manually you get this dialog:

enter image description here

We think this dialog is causing this file to stop from loading the file further. Our question is how can we suppress this dialog.

  • Hi,@Daniel, did you try [Custom Failure Handling](https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/design-automation/v3/developers_guide/revit_specific/handling-failures/) to suppress this warning? Or in above dialog, select 2nd option "Do not warn about... an continue working with the file" and save the file, then provide the new one for Design Automation? – Emma Zhu Jan 14 '21 at 18:06
  • Not yet, thank you! we will look into it – Daniel Jan 16 '21 at 11:29
  • Please review the follow up of my colleague – Daniel Jan 21 '21 at 13:01

We've added the Custom Failure Handling (as suggested), but it seems that this code is not even executed: we don't see any logs. The failure seems to occur directly after our log when our plugin starts (see ** Plugin code starts here.)

What we eventually did to have a successful run, was to recreate a new central file. Maybe the file was corrupt to start with.
