Hi
Good question.
You will need some way to select the next photo.
What is your search criteria?
You’ll probably need to log the data in a GSheet or Airtable.
Then you can lookup and update which have been used.

There isn’t a search option to pick a file at random.
You’ll probably need to log the file data in a GSheet or Airtable.
Then you could assign some sort of random value and sort by that value and pick the next file record.
