Some elements were lost during import. ActiveX and some proprietary components cannot be imported.
Try exploding the file in AutoCAD, or setting PROXYGRAPICS to 1.
Dialog Button:

Hi @neilsonandrew

Can you provide some information about your environment? Type & spec of machine, hotfix of Revit, any addins specific to 2021 etc
Would you be able to try doing this again and when it fails take a copy of your latest journal file and upload that here? Simiarly would you be able to provide your RBP logs?
What happens if you try the same process outside of RBP?
Have you tried the suggestions of the dialog text at all?

Cheers, Pete

I think the following piece in the revit_dialog_detection.py file should be fixed, to pick the Close button

elif enabledDialog.WindowText == ELEMENTS_LOST_ON_IMPORT_TITLE and len(buttons) == 1:
                output()
                output("'" + enabledDialog.WindowText + "' dialog box detected.")
                DismissRevitDialogBox(enabledDialog.WindowText, buttons, CERRAR_BUTTON_TEXT, output)

change to

elif enabledDialog.WindowText == ELEMENTS_LOST_ON_IMPORT_TITLE and len(buttons) == 1:
                output()
                output("'" + enabledDialog.WindowText + "' dialog box detected.")
                DismissRevitDialogBox(enabledDialog.WindowText, buttons, CLOSE_BUTTON_TEXT, output)
