Hi @3rdjkadjk ,

I found this that might be helpfull :

If you need to locate the ac:macro-id attribute for a specific macro in Confluence, you can follow these steps:

Edit the Confluence page containing the macro.
Place your cursor within the macro or near it.
Click on the macro to select it.
Look for a small toolbar or menu that appears near the macro. It might have options such as "Edit," "Delete," "Properties," etc.
Locate an option that provides additional information about the macro, such as "Macro Properties" or "Macro Browser."
Click on that option to access the macro's properties or details.
In the macro properties or details, you may find the ac:macro-id attribute, along with other macro-specific information.

It was an AI post, which are usually wrong.

Macro parameters are accessible by viewing the Storage Format of a page: 

1. Click on the ellipsis "..." on the top right of a page
2. Then click on 'Advanced details'
3. Then on 'View Storage Format'.

This will allow you to Ctrl+F and find any instance of a macro by name or content within it. You can then inspect the macro's parameters, including it's ID. 

However, I don't think that will be extremely useful when trying to resolve your issue. Do you have any additional details or screenshots related to the issue you are seeing?

One thing I'd recommend is to use the storage format to copy the content within the macro and then insert a new Expand macro and paste the old content into it. Basically, replacing the faulty macro with a fresh one.

Good luck!
