# Camera Markers
Use markers in a camera view to associate transaction data with objects (IE: tables).
You can place camera markers anywhere within a camera view. These markers are commonly used to associate tables in the camera view with transaction data. For example, a restaurant might use camera markers to associate each table in the camera view with the same table number data in the POS system.
The type of markers available to you can vary based on the available POS data. The most common marker is a table marker.
If you need additional help understanding the purpose and functionality of camera annotations, please reach out to our support team at 1-888-335-9844 or use our live chat.
To place a camera marker in one of your cameras, follow these steps:
1. Select the "gear" icon the top-right corner of the video player.
2. Select **Markers**:
3. Select the location in the video where you want to place the marker:
4. Type the name of the data source into the **Pin Name** field. For example, if you know that the official name for the table is "Table 1" in your POS data, type "Table 1" in the Pin Name field to associate the table data.
5. Select **Save**:
Now you can see the marker where you placed it in the camera view:
To delete a camera marker, navigate back to the marker view (select **More** > **Markers**) and then select any marker you would like to remove to delete it instantly.
### How do Markers Work?
Below is an example of how markers (specifically, table markers) can be useful for you and your business. In this example, you can see a transaction event for each marked table:\
Selecting the event thumbnail brings up the camera view, where you can see all of the markers that have been placed in the view:
Each marker has been placed at a table; the user can hover over each marker to see the total transaction value for that table, as well as the duration of the ticket (when the order for that table was opened and when it was closed):\
Please reach out to our team if you require more information on how to use markers at your business.

### Declutter Markers
The **Declutter Markers** option allows you to remove all camera markers from the video player that are not associated with the transaction that is currently playing. This helps remove clutter from the screen and allows you to focus on only the markers that are related to the current transaction you are viewing.
To toggle Declutter Markers:
1. Select the "gear" icon in the top-right corner of the video player.
2. Select the **Declutter Markers** slider to toggle the feature on or off:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.solink.com/docs/watch-and-find-video/manage-cameras/camera-markers.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
