How do I make a single switch that turns on all my lights

Configuration
1

I have several sockets in a room. I’d like a single toggle switch that turns them all on or off at once.

I tried creating a Scene but it seems like you would have to have two scenes, one for on and one for off. That’s not quite what I want.

Put them in a group - it’s that simple.

You can then turn the group on and off.

You might want to use the switch as X function as well to make HA think the sockets are lights.

Simone’s solution is the right one IF you want all the switches to be linked - “slaved”. The problem with the Group solution is that: if you switch on one of the grouped lights, it doesn’t turn on the group (at least: when I tried it). Simone’s solution DOES do that.
