Compare temperature automation
I'd like to compare 2 temperature sensors T310 to get an alert. I don't know how to configure this.
Pseudo code:
If sensor1.temperature < sensor2.temperature then
SendAlert()
end
It seems quite basic to me. I don't understand how I can do it (or how it is not yet possible).
If someone can help me, I offer a drink in Brussels.
Thanks a lot

Thanks for your answer, @Wayne-TP.
Very easy: I'd like to compare 2 temperature sensors T310 values to get an alert.
In practice, the goal is to have a notification 'Open the window' when the oustide temperature is lower than the inside temperature.
Pseudo code:
If sensor1.temperature < sensor2.temperature then
SendAlert()
end
At the moment, I have found a workaround, I created many automations, but it's boring:
If sensor1.temperature < 22 and sensor2.temperature > 22 then
SendAlert()
end
If sensor1.temperature < 23 and sensor2.temperature > 23 then
SendAlert()
end
If sensor1.temperature < 24 and sensor2.temperature > 24 then
SendAlert()
end
PS: the Tapo products are incredible! Thanks a lot.

So far, by combining the Trigger and the Condition in automation, you can refine the scene that needs to be triggered by the Tapo temperature & humidity sensor. How to create Smart Action (Automation or Shortcut) on Tapo app
Comparing the value between two sensors is not a supported feature at the moment. Can you share what scenarios you want to use this feature for?
