# Creating an Entity

> All objects created in Data Service are referred to as **Entities**.

All objects created in Data Service are referred to as **Entities**.

1. Navigate to **Data Service** from the left-side navigation bar. The **Entities** page opens.
2. Click **Create New Entity**. The **Create Entity** wizard opens.
3. Enter a **Display Name** for your entity. The **Display Name** is the name displayed when you import the entity in Studio. This field can be modified after the entity is created.
4. Enter a **Name** for your entity. The **Name** is can be alpha-numeric, but it must start with a letter. It must have between 3 and 30 characters.
   :::note
   The **Name** field is automatically populated with the same value provided for the **Display Name**. You can only change its value during the entity creation process. Once the entity is created, the **Name** field cannot be edited.
   :::
5. Optionally, add a **Description** for your entity.
6. Optionally, to keep the **Create entity** wizard open, select the **Create another** checkbox. This helps you create multiple entities faster, as it skips step 2 of this procedure.
7. Click **Save**.

The new entity is displayed in your **Entities** list.
