I’m getting an error in line 27 of my addon code when trying to find the note - does anyone know how to fix this?

It would help to know what the error is, but you’re clearly passing a card id to getNote(). Use find_notes() to get note ids. As an aside, camelcase names, at least in pylib, are deprecated, so you should also replace getNote() with get_note().
