That title was quite the task to try to summarize.

I have an ever increasing amount of API keys I can call upon of which each one, obviouslly, has some rate limitting set out on it.

I am looking for a solution/ formula particularly, where I can pull an API key to utilize in my overal project... if said project is required to continue then have the formula to pull a random API key from the collection of keys that I already posses, making sure that that new key hadn't been run in the last 3minutes. By "run", I mean me refreshing the sheet or setting something that loops until the data required is returned complettelly.

The "fresh" API key just gets added to the end of a link, like so(an example, not the real url):

https://somesite.io/?yipey=kaiAye&?yipay/eye/oh?=inthesky-API&=(xxxxxxxxxx API Key here xxxxxxxxx)
