# Timeline

> A unified, chronological feed of all activity on a record.

## Overview

The **Timeline** block is a single chronological feed of everything that has happened on the open record: notes, emails, calls, meetings, property changes, and task activity, newest first. Where [History](/blocks/embedded/object/history) tracks one property and [Associations](/blocks/embedded/object/associations) groups related records, Timeline is the "what happened, when" narrative for the whole record.

## Use cases

* A **Deal** record: the full activity trail alongside the pipeline stage.
* A **Contact**: catch up on every touchpoint before a call.

## Configuration parameters

| Param      | Type     | Description                                                                       |
| ---------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `objectId` | `object` | The object the block is bound to. Set automatically when placed on a record page. |

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom                      | Likely cause                                  | What to check                                                                                   |
| ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| The feed is empty            | The record has no logged activity yet         | Log a note / call or send an email from [Quick Actions](/blocks/embedded/object/quick-actions). |
| An expected event is missing | That activity isn't attributed to this record | Confirm the note / email / call was logged against this record.                                 |
