We establish sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of the inverse problem of finding two unknown functions from a Schwarz-type space of smooth functions rapidly decreasing at infinity on the right-hand side of the diffusion equation with Caputo–Djrbashian time fractional derivative. In this case, we use two overdetermination conditions integral with respect to time.
