Check if entity's state matches a different entity?

Howdy y’all!

I need some help comparing two entity’s states. Ultimately, I want to compare a sensor’s value against an input_select’s value and then take action if the value matches. I have a temperature sensor in my smoker and I want to set a specific temperature via a drop down so that I get an alert when we reach the temperature as selected via the drop down.

I’ve used things like current state in the past, but never with a separate entity. Any help with this flow would be greatly appreciated!

I’m typing from my phone now so I can’t give you a sequence to import.

But have two current state nodes in line and saving the data to separate parts of the message (not payload on both).
Then add a switch node and change the settings in there.
You have message as an option to compare against.

That worked great once I got the numbers right. Thanks for the tip!
