Trigger C420 camera recording smart action when T100 sensor detects motion

Hi, I have a set of C420S2 cameras, its H200 HUB and a T100 motion sensor. Everything up to date in terms of firmware and the Android app, also the latest version 3.1.315. Since I have the cameras at a height of 3 floors, the detection of motion and people does not work well at this height. For this I have purchased an additional Tapo T100 motion sensor (which does report correctly when there is movement, compared to cameras). The Tapo app only allows me to trigger the "privacy" action on cameras. I would like to ask for a feature to trigger a smart recording action of the C420 cameras (or any other avalaible models) when the T100 sensor detects movement. Thanks in advance. A cordial greeting.

Would be an excellent feature, e.g. record X minutes after sensor event.

RE:Trigger C420 camera recording smart action when T100 sensor detects motion
Yesterday
I landed on this thread after a days long search to see if I could get a Smart Automation to have my C500 pan to a stored view when a T100 is triggered by motion. That way my camera will know where to pan and tilt. Otherwise intruders can simply walk through a blindspot. The Patrol function has loopholes. There is no explicit statement anywhere on Tapo product pages that the T100 and C500 can integrate with each other (or with use of a hub). #T100 #H200 #C500
