title: Use cross account destinations in the UI

Once you create the cross account destinations using [NerdGraph](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apis/nerdgraph/examples/cross-account-destinations/manage-cross-account-destinations), you can view the Destinations and use them to receive notifications by configuring the workflows.

## View destinations on the Destinations page [#view-destinations-page]

1.  Go to **[one.newrelic.com](https://one.newrelic.com) > Alerts > Destinations**.
2.  Use the **Destination scope** filter to narrow the list:
    -   **Account scope**: destinations available only in the current account
    -   **Cross account scope**: destinations available across every account in your organization
3.  Identify the scope by its icon:
    -   An account icon marks an account-scope destination. Point to the icon to see the account name and ID.
    -   An organization icon marks a cross account destination. Point to the icon to see a note that every account in your organization can use it.

> #### ⚠️ IMPORTANT
>
> You can edit, delete, or test only account-scope destinations from this page. For cross account destinations, the **Edit** and **Delete** options don't work. To update, delete, or test a cross account destination, use the [NerdGraph mutations](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/apis/nerdgraph/examples/cross-account-destinations/manage-cross-account-destinations).

## Add a destination to a workflow channel [#use-destination-workflow]

A workflow sends notifications through one or more channels, and each channel uses a destination (the underlying integration, such as a Slack workspace or email address). When you add a channel to a workflow, both account-scope and cross account destinations appear together in the destination list, for any destination type—email, Slack, Jira, ServiceNow, Webhook, PagerDuty, and so on.

Follow these steps to add a destination to a workflow:

1.  Go to **one.newrelic.com > Alerts > Notification Workflows** and select a workflow from the list or create a workflow by clicking **+ Add a workflow**.

2.  Enter relevant details in **Configure your notification workflow** page.

    > #### 💡 TIP
    >
    > In the **Notify** section, when you add a channel, you can select either a cross account destination or an account-scope destination. Choose the destination based on who you want to notify: a cross account destination to notify the same channel from any account in the current organization, or an account-scope destination to notify a channel tied to the current account only.

3.  Click **Activate workflow** to send notifications to the configured channels.
