Resolving same key for different records among multiple .bib databases
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowProblem with generating Reference list (no bbl file generated?)Multiple bibliographies and one global bibliography - all with global labelsCitation from same first author but different yearHow to set JabRef to keep the bibtex key of imported duplicate bib itemAvoiding duplicate entries in bibliography having different cite keysHow edit the `plainnat.bst` avoiding sort by keyjneurosci bibliography style: missing extra labels (a, b, …) for year field for some multiple-author entriesEditing BST file to correctly disambiguate reference with same lead author in same yearWays to check the differences between references in two bib files?removing duplicates and adding missing fields using bibtool
I am working on several .bib databases, like first.bib, second.bib, third.bib, etc.
Among these bib files, same key existed for different records, like an author wrote two papers within one year, and the keys generated for them are same, let's say authorname2018, but actually there are different papers.
The setting in preference can only solve the issue within one .bib file, 
so my question is how to generate different keys among multiple .bib files when importing records, without merging these .bib files into one .bib file?

On what level do you want to generate different keys? Do you want to configure JabRef to make sure that there are no duplicate keys across several files? Do you want to merge the.bibfiles into one large.bibfile and want to avoid duplicates there? Or do you want your duplicates to be handled on the BibTeX/Biber side (I think that is not possible).

Sorry for confusion. I want to have unique keys among multiple.bibfiles. I don't want to merge these multiple.bibfiles. In current situation, I have same keys for different records within these.bibfiles. I hope jabref can automatically generate different keys in the future when I import new records. Hope my question is clear now.

JabRef is able to generate keys on import, but obviously only per bib file. Each bib file is a unique library. Libraries are independent of each other. It's not possible to have this among multiple libraries

Since the question is about JabRef and general.bibfiles and not the specific packagesnatbibandbiblatexI have removed those tags. I guess it is not surprising that the function you are looking for is not yet implemented as usually.bibfiles are kept independent of each other.
