  'id': '<BOOKMARK_ID>',
  'label': '<LABEL>',
  'description': '<DESCRIPTION>',
  'user': {
    'name': '<NAME>',
    'userId': '<USER_ID>',
    'email': '<EMAIL>'
  },
  'beginTimeOffset': <OFFSET>,

}));

Where:

<BOOKMARK_ID> is the ID of a bookmark that you created during the conversation.
<LABEL> is a short label for the bookmark.
