 ### 2.3 Macro action
-***TBD***
+`Macro` actions allow you to register a complex sequence of keystrokes when a key is pressed, where macros are simple sequences of keypresses.
+
+    ACTION_MACRO(id)
+    ACTION_MACRO_TAP(id)
+
+`id` is an 8-bit user-defined value the macro getter function can use to pick the specific macro.
+
+
+#### 2.3.1 Implementing Macro getter function
+To implement `macro` functions, the macro lookup list must be implemented: 
+
+    const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt);
+
+The function must always return a valid macro, and default implementation of `action_get_macro` always returns `MACRO_NONE` which has no effect.
+  
+#### 2.3.1.1 Limitations
+Similar to the Function Action system, the selector functions is passed  a `keyrecord_t` object, so it can inspect the key state (e.g. different macros on key press or release), and key itself.
+  
+Unlike the Function Action system,`macros` are pre-recorded key sequences, so you can only select from a list. If you want to use dynamic macros then you should look at the more complex function action system. 
 
-`Macro` action indicates complex key strokes.

+#### 2.3.2 Implementing/Defining Macro sequences
+Macros are of the form (must be wrapped by the `MACRO` function, and end with an `END` mark)
