Research direction
Study the existing get all records() method in gspread/worksheet.py to understand how column headers are mapped. Implement set record() to insert a single dictionary and set records() to insert a list. Ensure proper handling of data types and API calls. No linked PRs or maintainer guidance; refer to comments for community suggestions.
