Wild Surge Rollable Table not working with Macro

Greetings,  This is my first Macro and after following a plethora of videos and community posts, I still can't get it to work. It's a Barbarian Wild Magic surge table that I want my barb player to click on and get his result. It is set up as follows: Macro:  BarbWildMagic &{template:traits} {{name=Wild Surge!}} {{source=Path of Wild Magic}} {{description=[[1t(WildSurge)]]}} Rollable Table: WildSurge (Has 8 paragraph entries for each option) Table runs well when I click on it. But when I click on the macro, all I get in chat is the title, subtitle, and the description comes up as [object Object] instead of displaying one of the options on the rollable table. Wild Surge! Path of Wild Magic [object Object]   What am I doing wrong? Also, could this macro be added to a button, an action, or an effect in the Barb player's 2024 character sheet like any normal abilty and attack? Or is this only clickable on the macro bar outside?

Replace the parenthesis with brackets. It should be 1t[WildSurge]
Thanks for the quick response, but I tried that and it still gives me the error. This: &{template:traits} {{name=Wild Surge!}} {{source=Path of Wild Magic}} {{description=[[1t[WildSurge]]]}} Gives me the same error. Wild Surge! Path of Wild Magic [object Object] Changing stuff around to this: &{template:traits} {{name=Wild Surge!}} {{source=Path of Wild Magic}} {{description=[[1t[WildSurge]]}} Gives me this error: Wild Surge! Path of Wild Magic [[1t[WildSurge]]

You are still missing a bracket after WildSurge. 
Gauss, Thanks for your assistance and patience. I have added it and removed the bracket and changed it around and done a number of tests and it never works. As it stands now: &{template:traits} {{name=Wild Surge!}} {{source=Path of Wild Magic}} {{description=[[1t[WildSurge]]]}} The error persists: Wild Surge! Path of Wild Magic [object Object]

Which Character Sheet are you using in your game? 
I believe it's the 2024 character sheet (Black and red), not the original white sheet that looks like the one at the back of the 2014 PHB.

Hrm, if you are using the D&D 5e 2024 sheet it should be working. But, I can confirm it does not work when you only have the 2024 sheet in your game.  The traits template is one of the 2014 templates they have added to work with the 2024 sheet so it should be working.  I suggest filing a bug report via the  Help Center .  When you file the report please let them know that this works on 2024+2014 games and 2014 games, but not 2024 (only) games.  Also let them know that the problem is with any inline roll in the trait description (not just rollable table) Finally, if they need more information let them know I was able to replicate the issue and they can ask me.  In the meantime I suggest adding the 2014 sheet to your game via the My Settings tab -> Character Sheet. It should function then. 
Thank you, Gauss. I have submitted the report. This was very confusing since I'm not very knowledgeable on the matter, I thought it was me doing something wrong.
