Accessing input layer when using "Selected features only" returns 'NoneType' object in QGIS 3 processing script

I am trying to write a processing script in QGIS 3.10.8 which would execute database function based on the selected features (or their id). I defined the input in a way that it accepts a point vector layer that the user chooses and it should then get the ids of the selected features which are used as a parameter of the database function. The problem is, that when I select some features and use "Selected features only" option, the script ends with an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "string", line 119, in processAlgorithm

AttributeError: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘getFeatures’

When I don’t use "Selected features only" the script continues normally to the part where it connects to the database and executes a function. I don’t know what am I doing wrong, is there a correct way to handle the selected features of the layer?
