Temperature on my datafield

I am trying to add Temperature to my datafield, however I cannot figure out how.

For example, on the function compute(info) I get the hearth rate like:
hr = info.currentHeartRate !=null ? info.currentHeartRate : 0;

and then OnUpdate I just show the value for hr. For the temperature I am replacing currentHeartRate with Temperature but seems does not work.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Temperature is not in Activity.Info..

On some watches, you can get the latest temp from the internal sensor from SensorHistory.getTemperatureHistory()

On Edge devices you get the internal temp from Sensor.Info. On devices, that is the value of the external Tempe sensor (if connected), but to access Sensor.Info in a data field, that can only be done in a background process.

Hello Jim,
Thank you for your super fast response!
My implementation is on the Edge. So I guess can come from Sensor.info. However I have no idea how to call for it. I tried Tempe = Sensor.Info.Temperature != null ? sensor.info.temperature : 0; but I think I am totally wrong.

Sensor is only available in a background process in a data field

You get it with this code. (I tend to short hand in posts)

var temp=Sensor.getInfo().temperature;
