Isue with updateParameter()

Getting error with "updateParameter" in openseespy

WARNING: parameter - failed to get parameter tag
Traceback (most recent call last):

You have to define a parameter first, e.g.,

ops.parameter(12,'element',1234,'material',2,'-refB')
ops.updateParameter(12,G*2/3.0)

thank you @mhscott for your response. I am still getting some error.

Parameter::addComponent 12 -- no objects were able to identify parameter
material 2 -refB

I was trying to replicate the example "PressureDependMultiYield-Example 11" given at https://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index.php?title=PressureDependMultiYield-Example_11
