+## Adding cards to your dashboard
+
+1. If this is your first time editing a dashboard, [take control of the default dashboard](/dashboards/#get-started-with-your-own-dashboard).
+
+2. Choose one of the two methods to add cards to a dashboard:
+
+{% details "Using the Add Card button" %}
+
+1. In the bottom right, select **Add card**.
+
+2. There are two methods to add a card: **By card** type and **By entity**:
+ - **By card** type:
+ 
+
+ - If you have an idea of what card type you want to use for an entity, browse the list of available cards.
+ - If you are using the **Sections** view, try the **Tile** card in the **Suggested cards** section.
+
+ - **By entity**:
+ - If you want to add multiple entities at once, select them from the list.
+ 
+
+ - Then, select **Continue**.
+
+ 
+3. Select **Add to dashboard**.
+
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details "Using the Add to dashboard button on device page" %}
+
+Another way to add entities to a dashboard is to use the **Device** page.
+
+1. Go to **{% my integrations title="Settings > Devices & services" %}**.
+2. On the integration card of interest, select **Devices**.
+ - If there are multiple devices, select the device from the list.
+
+3. In the **Controls** section, select **Add to Dashboard**.
+ 
+{% enddetails %}
