I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong but when I go to add a new automation I type Elevation or Speed into the parameter search and they don’t come up. It’s a 3D event. I’m on 2.02.12. Did something change from previous versions or did I mess something up at some point?

Have you tried creating a new preset parameter and setting its parameter type to “Built In: Elevation?” You need to have created a preset parameter for your project before it will appear in your menu of parameters to add.
