Fusion 360 Probing rutines post, macro

Hi, is there anyone who can explain what it takes to be able to use the Probing routines in the Fusion 360 machining extension ? Post processor, macro ?? is there anyone working to open up the possibility of this? I'm thinking about looking at it, but I'm afraid I have too little expertise.

Highly unlikely you would see any movement on that request as UCCNC has no macro/logic support in g-code itself, macros are written in C#/VB.NET. The Probing routines the plugin offers are not callable via g-code but only the API (in a C#/VB "macro") by manipulating probe plugin screen inputs and buttons. So it would require wrapping any/all of the probing routines into a macro to then be callable via g-code posted by the [modified] UCCNC processor.

I have actually been working on creating my own probing routines macro (doesn't use Probe plugin) and modifying the post processor to support WCP operations in Fusion 360. It is very early stages, incomplete and untested. I haven't been able to circle back on it for some time now either. It is based off the HAAS Fusion 360 PP and Renishaw probe subroutines

Thanks DanStory for the complementary answer.
I wonder what's the reason why the developers of Uccnc
don't prioritize getting macros made like that,
that would give UCcnc a big boost if you ask me

Can you give a link to the documentation of the mentioned Fusion360 machining extension?
