Organize your script into sections with markers. Markers work like bookmarks or headers — they appear in the timeline and can show up as chapters in your exported or published videos. In this article, you’ll learn how to add, navigate, edit, and export markers. ## Add a marker There are several ways to add a marker to the script: 1. Type `#` directly into your script. 2. Click **Add marker** on a blank line in the script.\\ Add marker option shown in the Descript script editor 3. Use the **Add Chapters** tool from the [AI Tools panel](/descript-tour/ai-tools-overview). Markers appear in your script as section headers and as purple bookmarks in the timeline.

As you drag, the script highlights where the marker will land. Dragging and repositioning a marker in the Descript script editor ### Rename a marker Click into the marker’s label and type a new name. ### Delete a marker Select the marker in your script and press **Delete** on your keyboard. ## How markers appear in exports ### Do markers show up as chapters in my video? Markers automatically appear as chapters in [Descript web links](/export-and-share/share-page). For [local exports](/export-and-share/video-gif), turn on **Include markers as chapters** in the Metadata settings. This works for MP4, MP3, and AAC files. Media players and podcast apps that support chapters will display them. **Note:** YouTube doesn’t support chapter metadata from exported files. You’ll need to [add chapters manually in the video description](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9884579?hl=en). You can easily copy a formatted list of your chapters for this purpose by clicking the marker icon next to the playback controls and selecting **Copy chapters for YouTube**. Export settings showing Include markers as chapters enabled ### Can I export individual markers? Yes. When [exporting locally](/export-and-share/video-gif), choose **Markers** as the export option to create a separate file for each marker. ### Do markers appear in transcript exports? Yes. When [exporting to Word or HTML](/export-and-share/transcript), markers appear as section headers with timecodes if the option is enabled.
