This is the form you should use, but the method name you are trying to call is "GetSettingValue", not "GetSettingName", hence the AttributeError.

Ah, yes. Good catch! Unfortunately, correcting that typo didn't seem to fix it. Here's what I get, when using the correct method name this time.

It appears it does want that second parameter, but passing in a variable doesn't seem to work.

>>> testValue = ""
