Given the syntax, I’m assuming you’re using Niri with your Noctalia shell. If so, this is the key bind I use:
Mod+D hotkey-overlay-title="Run Application Launcher" { spawn "noctalia-shell" "ipc" "call" "launcher" "toggle"; }

In any case, you can find the command in the docs.

Similar to @mickeymarse, this is what I have for Niri:

    Mod+D hotkey-overlay-title="Launcher" { spawn-sh "noctalia-shell ipc call launcher toggle"; }

If you’re on Sway then you can probably put this in your sway/config

bindsym Mod4+d exec noctalia-shell ipc call launcher toggle
