Have a look at this code:
https://www.mathworks.com/help/thingspeak/calculate-average-humidity.html
This code is for average, but you can replace that with a sum. It will show you how to read and process the data. Also there is a template for it when you create a new MATLAB analysis.

Are you looking to add a column of index labels to your exported data? If you use a timetable, you can probably easily append this index.
Here is an example using the cheerlights channel:

myTable=thingSpeakRead(1417,'numPoints',15,'outputFormat','timetable');
index=(1:15);
myTable=addvars(myTable,index','before',1);

You can index into MATLAB matricies, arrays, and even timetables though, you don't actually need row numbers, unless you are just looking to add that for display reasons.
