Hi everyone,
In my family we use the HA app which can track the amount of steps per day. I can read these values in Node-Red but how can I compare these amounts/values/steps of 5 different entities and send back the highest value/entity to announce a ‘winner’ at the end of the day in Home Assistant?
Thanks for your suggestions!
Save each persons total in a flow variable then have an inject node run at a set time, grab all the flow variables, compare them and announce the winner
Thanks, that workflow I had figured out as well, just don't know how to compare them (what script or node to use)
Hard to say as you give no indication of how you collect the data, and how it is formatted
Here is an example, each value is in msg.steps."persons_name". The change node returns the object/s with the highest value.

Great! This is something I can use!
Much appreciated!
Unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work. It's not showing the one winner as in your example.

Messages do not arrive at the same time, you would need to join them. I also switched the change nodes and every thing to msg.payload.

Brilliant! It works now, but is there also a way to export only the name somehow?
