Element.GetFromLinkedFile Node doesn't look right

For some reason, when I try to use the node Element.GetFromLinkedFile it looks like the yellow example shown here. In online tutorials it has labeled inputs, as shown below. I checked that my steamnodes package is up to date (1.2.4). Am I doing something wrong?

Hi @cjg63C47,

The spaces and reserved keywords in the names of the inputs are no longer supported in latest Dynamo 2.X versions.

Edit the custom node with rigth click and replace the inputs with :
LinkInstance, category and LinkDocument

Also the document is a completely redundant input so you can reduce the inputs to 2. The link doc can be obtained from the LinkInstance using GetLinkDocument().
