Default Entities Map to Services

Domain	Service
automation	automation.toggle
cover	cover.toggle
fan	fan.toggle
input_boolean	input_boolean.toggle
light	light.toggle
script	script.toggle
switch	switch.toggle
vacuum	vacuum.toggle
media_player	media_player.media_play_pause
scene	scene.turn_on

If no service is specified for a given button, and there is no default value corresponding to its specific domain (eg.: binary_sensor), the "more-info" modal of the entity will be shown instead (if any).
