Set `video_url`, `spreadsheet_id` and `sheet_name` in **Video and sheet settings**.\n2. Select an HTTP **Header Auth** credential in **Fetch Rumble transcript**: header name `x-api-key`, value your private FetchGoblin key.\n3. Connect Google Sheets and create these headers: `source_url`, `language`, `transcript`, `retrieved_at`, `credits_charged`, `request_id`.\n4. Run manually. Null/empty captions stop before Sheets. Text over 49,000 characters is truncated and visibly marked. Each rerun appends a row; no deduplication or schedule is included.\n\nCaption requests verified 2026-10-13. Returned live captions cost one credit; the tested no-caption URL cost zero. Trial: 50 credits after verification; prepaid top-ups from $5. n8n hosting has separate costs.\n\n[Full setup guide](https://fetchgoblin.com/guides/rumble-transcripts-google-sheets) · [API reference](https://fetchgoblin.com/docs/get-v1-rumble-video-transcript)",
