Timeline markers
Timeline markers are shown as various icons along a meeting recording’s timeline that mark the parts of a meeting that are directly relevant to you. You can view timeline markers by hovering over a meeting recording. Select one to go right to that part of the recording.
Timeline markers include:

If your name was mentioned, you’ll see the @ icon. Select the @ icon to jump right to that part of the recording.
