time stamps

Recorded moment indicators

Time stamps are markers indicating when something occurred or was recorded.

Digital files carry time stamps showing creation or modification dates.

Video platforms display time stamps for specific moments: Skip to the 3:42 time stamp.

In documentation, time stamps verify when transactions happened.

The verb phrase means to mark with such an indicator: The system time stamps every entry automatically.
