Action launch via notification

Hello

I am trying to launch an app when a notification (which is created by macrodroid itself) is touched. For this, I created an action to launch that app and then bound that action to that notification. Strangely it does nothing. It doesn't even register in the system log.

If I instead do the same activity via a macro and bind that macro (instead of action) to the notification, it works as expected. And also gets logged in the system log.

The only difference between the two above approach is that the first one uses an Action whereas the second one uses a Macro. I have tried even performing the simplest activities via that action/macro but no matter what it does, Action doesn't work but Macro works.

For the moment I can get by. I have to create several macros each corresponding to different possible input. However if I could do it with Action, I could have implemented with just one action and different input variables.

Am I alone in noticing this glitch or is there something conky about my configuration?

I am not really sure how did you configure it so maybe screenshot would help.
But action display notification has option to trigger chosen macro when clicking it

First image is the macro which creates two notifications. One of which launches a macro and the other launches an action.

Second image is the test macro, which merely executes a popup message.

Third image is the test action, which also executes a popup message.


The macro launching works as expected. The action is never executed.
