I moved the file but I’m still getting an error that makes no sense to me.

The video should be out hopefully next Monday, but in the meantime this is the related script/code with a sample model that I use in the video:

Alrighty, I released a new version of Rhythm that abandons the need to invoke the node in that manner.

I had to do that initially to maintain compatibility back to Revit 2018. but… that proved to be causing more issues so I removed it.

Download the latest version (2022.4.1) and you should be good to go.

The GIF below shows the node in action with one of the considerations highlighted (force a nested list)
