Hi Javier. If it's a sheet roll (draggable button), the macro will have a name like %{selected|Roll-for-initiative}. Some sheets, like the Pathfinder Sheet, will show you the name of the button and/or attribute as you hover over them. One method I use to learn a sheet rolls macro name is to run the macro and then click into the chat window and use the "UP" arrow key. You will see the last command sent to chat. When you use a sheet roll button/macro, you will see the name. Now, you can paste that name into a token action macro and use it as a token action. Since the sheetroll macros already have the macro created for you, you can't necessarily use the /gmroll with it. Some sheets may allow you to modify the macro on the sheet and you could add it from there. But you can easily add /w gm which will send the result to the gm privately. example macro using the Pathfinder's Sheet Initiative sheet roll macro /w gm %{selected|Roll-for-initiative} Hope that helps.
thank you, it helped me a lot

Your welcome Javier. I wasn't sure if I understood your question entirely. I'm positive there are multiple solutions. BTW, another method for learning an attribute or macro's name is to use (Right-click+Inspect Element). This will open up a log window in the browser and highlight the line within the html on the page that includes the element you are inspecting. All attributes on roll20 start with "@" followed by the { ATTRIBUTES NAME }. Macros will start with "%" If I use inspect element over the Strength Modifier on the Pathfinder sheet I can find the name of that using the log attribute; You can see that @{STR-mod} is the name of the attribute I'm looking for. This is handy for creating your own custom macros. Have fun.
