If the field is left blank, the reaction will be performed for all objects of the selected type.

If you enter the # symbol in the field, the identifier of the object from which the event was received will be substituted into the reaction. The object types in the Events and Actions tables may differ. When the macro is run manually from the main control panel, the # symbol is treated as if the field was blank, i.e. the macro is executed for all objects of the selected type.
Example of using the # symbol: disarm the camera if the “Detach” event was received from it
