The class here does the trick. Not aware of any custom packages supporting this in node form currently.

import clr
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
clr.AddReference('RevitNodes')
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument

pb = BrowserOrganization.GetCurrentBrowserOrganizationForViews(doc)
name = []
for p in pb.Parameters:
    name.append(p.Element)
OUT = name

This will get you the names. not the elements. OBS Works in 2024 have been having truble getting it to work in older versions. also i doesnt work if you use built in parameters i have no clue why.

dont put anything in to the inputs taken out from a custom node i made

Package SEGOKS if you want a node for it

import clr
# Import RevitAPI
clr.AddReference('RevitAPI')
import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *

clr.AddReference('RevitServices')
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument

browsers = FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(BrowserOrganization).ToElements()

for b in browsers :
	viewBrowser=b.GetCurrentBrowserOrganizationForViews(doc)
	viewBrowserSheet=b.GetCurrentBrowserOrganizationForSheets(doc)
	
	
View_folders = viewBrowser.GetFolderItems(doc.ActiveView.Id)
output = []
for folder in View_folders:
        fID = doc.GetElement(folder.ElementId).Name
        output.append(fID)

Sheet_folders = viewBrowserSheet.GetFolderItems(doc.ActiveView.Id)
outputb = []
        
for folder in Sheet_folders:
        sID = doc.GetElement(folder.ElementId).Name
        outputb.append(sID)
        

OUT = output,outputb

    if id_value in bip_values:

        output.append(LabelUtils.GetLabelFor(para_bip))
    else:

        output.append(para_elem.Name)
    
    
OUT = output
