GroupInitiative --ids command not working?

[greenpaws]

!group-init
works fine

!group-init --ids token1 token2
does nothing. help menu doesn't show up, nothing changes in the turn tracker. doesn't seem to matter if the names I type are tokens on the grid or not.
I tried a bunch of variants on the syntax to see if I was typing something wrong but nothing changes. What am I missing? Am I doing the syntax wrong and just haven't tried the right thing? Is a token's ID not its name?

I just want a macro that rolls initiative for all my players, I don't want to have to select all their tokens every time.

I've notice this bug yesterday. No APIs was working. I solved this problem restarting the API sandbox in the configurations of my game.

Sorry for the delay, this isn't the best way to get help with specific API scripts. It's better to reach out directly on Roll20, generally speaking.

To answer your question, the name is not the ID. The ID is what you get from @{selected|token_id}. It's a unique identifier for a given token on a given page. Since the is changes for each copy of a graphic, it won't make for a useful macro I'm afraid. It's better for using @{target|token_id} to make a click interface rather than a select one.
