Duty action in macro?

[Rongway]

Duty Action and Duty Action II are General actions, so you should be able to write them to a hotbar slot with the /hotbar or /chotbar commands.

/hotbar general "Duty Action" barNum slotNum
/hotbar general "Duty Action II" barNum slotNum

Thank you. This will let me quickly set the duty action to my M4 bound hotbar slot. Later, when I need that slot for something else, like the Aether Compass, I can just drag it into that slot. Just one click needed instead of two trips deep into the bindings menu.

Edit: I just stumbled across another way, I was in the Actions and Traits menu, and noticed the General category, which you had mentioned. Under there are icons for Duty Action 1/2 So, all I really had to do was drag one of them into my M4 slot.
The macro is still a bit quicker, since I don't have to open the actions menu or unlock the bars if dragging from another slot).

If you prefer the macro versions to dragging the duty actions, there are macro versions for other possibilities as well, like:

/hotbar item "Aether Compass" barNum slotNum

... unless that's just an example and there's actually too many possibilities for setting up macros for each to be practical. But the /hotbar command can do quite a lot:
