## Enabling or disabling elements

Some entities are disabled by default. To enable them, follow these steps:

1. In Home Assistant, open the table of interest.
   - To enable or disable entities, go to {% my entities title="**Settings** > **Devices & Services** > **Entities**" %}.
   - To enable or disable automations, go to {% my automations title="**Settings** > **Automations & Scenes**" %}.
2. [Enable multiselect](/docs/organizing/tables) and select all the entities you want to enable or disable.
3. In the top right corner, select the three dots {% icon "mdi:dots-vertical" %} menu, then select **Enable** or **Disable**.
