Should DCA be able to submit manifests with validation warnings

[afwillia]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In DCA, you cannot submit a manifest until it has passed validation with schematic. Schematic will return errors and warnings. Should users be able to upload manifests containing warnings?

@afwillia you should be able to submit with only warnings returned. Right now, for submission after validation, only errors are checked, so this behavior is not intended

Thanks for bringing up the question!

There was uncertainty whether users could submit manifests with warnings (such as invalid type, invalid cross-manifest checking) to synapse. So the current behavior was designed to avoid storing any possible invalid manifests (the helper message should've covered the only warnings scenario as well though).

If @milen-sage or @GiaJordan agree that we can upload the manifests with warnings ✅, I think we could then proceed to show the button for manifests only containing warnings.

Yes, we should proceed. Only errors should prohibit submission @rrchai

thanks @GiaJordan and @rrchai - I'll add this to our backlog then!
