# Clip Command

### Signing up

Before you can get started you will need a RumbleBot account that is linked to your Rumble channel. This only takes a few minutes and is a straightforward process. [Guide](/creating-an-account.md).

### Enabling the command

Navigate to the "Clip command" page on the RumbleBot dashboard. Here, you will see the option to enable the command and configure what permissions are required to create clips. It is recommended to allow all viewers to create clips, but if your chat becomes spammy you can limit clip creation to supporters, subscribers, or your moderation team.

With RumbleBot premium you gain the options to configure a custom response, change the default duration of a clip (if no time is specified), and your viewers can create clips up to 240 seconds long!

### Using the command

The command is now ready to be used! Next time you go live (or if you already are live) you can create a clip from your stream simply by typing `!clip` in chat. Or, you can create a clip with a custom duration by specifying a number of seconds. For example, `!clip 45` will create a clip from the past 45 seconds. After you type the command RumbleBot will instantly respond with a URL to your clip.

### Clipping FAQ

**How does this work? Rumble doesn't have a clip feature.**

> RumbleBot clips are created through a separate system we developed and are not stored on the Rumble servers. RumbleBot is caching your stream, and when a clip is created we store the past X seconds of video and serve it through our website

**When I type !clip nothing happens**

> If you just enabled the command it may takes 1-2 minutes for it to fully activate. If its still not working, please reach out on [Discord](https://discord.gg/fER6GpSv5y), [Guilded](https://www.guilded.gg/i/pL8vr77p), or send an email to <support@rumble.bot>.

**How long are clips stored for?**&#x20;

> We do not automatically remove clips from our server.

**Can I remove clips?**

> Yes. To delete a clip press the "Delete" button while viewing it. Make sure you are signed in. For mass deletion, please contact us.

**What content is allowed?**

> All content is allowed unless it breaks Rumble TOS or contains illegal content. NSFW content is allowed but it may not show up in "recommended" sections.
