https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api/#!rate-limit The first best practice is to not do what is in the loop, and instead use a single larger request to avoid the rate limit.

The link provided states "The Dashboard API is limited to 5 requests per second, per organization.". It means that additional keys won't help.
