Properties

timelineWasEmpty?: boolean

Whether the timeline was empty before the marker event arrived in the room. This could be happen in a variety of cases:

  1. From the initial sync
  2. It's the first state we're seeing after joining the room
  3. Or whether it's coming from syncFromCache

A marker event refers to UNSTABLE_MSC2716_MARKER and indicates that history was imported somewhere back in time. It specifically points to an MSC2716 insertion event where the history was imported at. Marker events are sent as state events so they are easily discoverable by clients and homeservers and don't get lost in timeline gaps.
