### Remarks

The Profiler uses unique identifier for each marker created during profiling session. Marker can generate many samples which [HierarchyFrameDataView](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/profiling/hierarchyframedataview.md) and [RawFrameDataView](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/profiling/rawframedataview.md) provide access for.

All samples generated by the same marker have the same integer marker identifier and the same name.

Marker identifiers are persistent for the entire profiling session.

**Throws:**

*System.ArgumentException* if *markerId* is invalid.
