The "Load Entity" action is deliberately only loading 1 entity, that's why the label is singular. It is meant to be used for simple use cases.
For scenarios where you want to load multiple entities, we recommend using the views query action instead.

Hope the answer above was sufficient. Please re-open otherwise.

I am re-opening because the use case (external entities) does not work with views. Entity query is the only way to make this work.

Sorry, what do you mean by "external entities" and what exactly isn't working with views in that case?
Also, what is "entity query" and how do you get it to work there?
I think he means this module -> https://www.drupal.org/project/external_entities β

Re-closing as I was able to take the feedback about using views and apply it. I got a little confused because the External Entities module doesn't allow you to build views with those entity types. However, for my use case, I need a view of nodes referencing a given external entity and I was able to do that and leverage the view in ECA.

This is great, thanks for your feedback. I'd like to add that the external entities module seems to be working on views support, though. And in the meantime, there is another module that closes that gap, at least according to the description, I haven't tried it myself.
