When using the client test tools using a GetParameterMessage I get this message back for a parameter with the parameter in the xml with these tags:

<Type>read</Type>
            <Interprete>
                <RawType>other</RawType>
                <LengthType>next param</LengthType>
                <Type>string</Type>
            </Interprete>
            <Display>
                <RTDisplay>false</RTDisplay>
            </Display>
            <Measurement>
                <Type>string</Type>
            </Measurement>
        </Param>

Does anyone know what's causing the error below?

Hi Ryan,

Please could you let us know the type of the parameter where are you trying to get the value (single parameter or a column parameter)? Please find below an example for a single parameter:

As Jens mentioned, could it be the case that you are using an incorrect ID?

Thank you for you example. I am trying to get the value of a single parameter

Hi Ryan,
If this is the case, can you check first if you are pointing to an existing element?
When you right click on an element and select ‘Properties’, you will find the ID in the format DMAID/EID. The first number corresponds to the DMAID and the second number corresponds to the element ID. Can you try with these IDs and let us know if it works?
