Turn ON Lights Randomly between sunset and sunrise

[stepic7]

Hello
Between Sunset and Sunrise I would like to turn ON three lamps for a random time between 3 and 5 min such as one is always ON and sequence should be random as well if possible
Lamps are controlled by Ewelink SONOFF devices.
I do have a subscription also to IFTTT Pro and Ewelink Advanced plan
I tried to figure out also with the help of POE with several different AI bots but didn’t succeed
What I do not understand is the integration between Apilio and IFTTT and or Ewelink
What should I create in Apilio?

thanks
Stefano
