Hi all,

I'm trying to write a GQL query that returns N random records of a
specific kind. My current implementation works but requires N calls to
the datastore. I'd like to make it 1 call to the datastore if
possible.

I currently assign a random number to every kind that I put into the
datastore. When I query for a random record I generate another random
number and query for records > rand ORDER BY asc LIMIT 1.

This works, however, it only returns 1 record so I need to do N
queries. Any ideas on how to make this one query? Thanks.
