How to disable / suppress / remove the A360 login window when opening document

I have an automated process and when I open a Revit model in 2017 I get a window prompt asking me login to Autodesk.  How do I remove this prompt with the API?  There is no option in the interface of Revit to disable this prompt.  I want it to NEVER ask me if I want to login.  This is a feature that seems only present in 2017 because I've never had issues with 2012 through 2016 Revit.  To make it more obtrusive, if I close the window through the interface it has to ask me 2 more times if I want to login before it stops trying.

I have the same problem, it gets worse when you start working with BIM360 files. I finally just created and logged into an Autodesk account on my automated process computer and it hasn't ever asked me again, since I'm always logged in.

Yeah, it might not be happening to all my Revit models, but I think you're right in saying it's the BIM360 files and maybe I've just been processing a lot of them recently.  I'd rather not Login, but I will make a note of that being an option.  I have a computer I work on that is not connected to the internet at all and when I open the same file I do not get prompted to Login, but the machine that runs the automated process is connected to the internet so it wants me to Login.  There is nothing I need to Login for so it would be nice to get rid of the Login altogether.

 

I tried uninstalling BIM360 but then Revit would encounter a fatal error and close, and I would rather not remove BIM360 anyways in case it's needed at some point.
