Note that you grab the occurrence when you're selecting something from a design. Make sure to find the component before getting the properties. The code should look something like this:

occurrence.component.description

There is a part of code for a looking component description which i used. For everyone who will looking it 🙂 

import adsk.core, adsk.fusion, traceback

def run(context):
    ui = None
    try:
        app = adsk.core.Application.get()
        ui  = app.userInterface

 
        product = app.activeProduct
        design = adsk.fusion.Design.cast(product)    
        # get all components in this design
        allComps = design.allComponents
        for comp in allComps:
          ui.messageBox('comp description = ' + comp.description)


      
    except:
        if ui:
            ui.messageBox('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))
