"OR" of 2 sensors

Configuration
1

I am defining two template sensors to see if either of 2 thermostats setpoints are above a vacation temperature setpoints. The code below runs properly on the DT Template tab, with “True” or “False” results for the individual thermostats and the “OR” of the two, resulting “True” or “False”.

Blockquote

Template Sensor LR and MBR above vacation setpoint

- name: "LR Setpoint Above Vacation"    
  state: "{{ state_attr('climate.living_room','temperature')|int > states('input_number.vacation_temperature')|int }}"
  
- name: "MBR Setpoint Above Vacation"    
  state: "{{ state_attr('climate.bedroom','temperature')|int > states('input_number.vacation_temperature')|int }}"

Either LR or MBR above Vac Temp

- name: "LR or MBR SP Above Vac Temp"
  state: >
    "{{ states('sensor.mbr_setpoint_above_vacation') == 'True' 
    or states('sensor.lr_setpoint_above_vacation') == 'True' }}"

I try to create an automation that triggers when the “OR” state goes “True” then send notification. Here is the Yaml code:

Blockquote
alias: Check or Thermostat SP above Vacation SP
description: Notifies if either MBR or LR SP is above Vacatiopn SP
trigger:

  • platform: state
    entity_id:
    • sensor.lr_or_mbr_sp_above_vac_temp
      to: “"True"”
      condition:
      action:
  • service: notify.mobile_app_sm_g950u
    metadata: {}
    data:
    message: TTS
    data:
    ttl: 0
    priority: high
    media_stream: alarm_stream_max
    tts_text: A Thermostat is above Vaction setpoint
    mode: single

I have tried the OR result to be True and “True” , neither triggers.

Any advice?
Thanks

I don’t think you need the “either” sensor - you can just have two triggers in the automation. Triggers are always “or”.

That does help, thank you!
