As DanielWillis​ has mentioned, you cannot pass Nothing(null) as an argument for the Workspace Guid parameter in GetLiteralParameterValue.  Instead pass in the workspace id of the workspace where your parameter lives.

At a minimum you need something like this:

Dim workspaceId As Guid = BRApi.Dashboards.Workspaces.GetWorkspaceIDFromName(si, False, "Your Workspace Name")
Dim myFlagValue As String = If(BRApi.Dashboards.Parameters.GetLiteralParameterValue(si, False, workspaceId , "myFlag"), "")
