### Adding Destination to Odigos

There are two primary methods for configuring destinations in Odigos:

##### **Using the UI**

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Use the [Odigos CLI](https://docs.odigos.io/cli/odigos_ui) to access the UI

    ```bash theme={null}
    odigos ui
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click on `Add Destination`, select `Uptrace` and follow the on-screen instructions
  </Step>
</Steps>

##### **Using Kubernetes manifests**

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Save the YAML below to a file (e.g. `uptrace.yaml`)

    ```yaml theme={null}
    apiVersion: odigos.io/v1alpha1
    kind: Destination
    metadata:
      name: uptrace-example
      namespace: odigos-system
    spec:
      data:
        UPTRACE_DSN: <Data Source Name (DSN)>
        # Note: The commented fields below are optional.
        # UPTRACE_ENDPOINT: <Endpoint (default: https://otlp.uptrace.dev:4317)>
      destinationName: uptrace
      signals:
      - TRACES
      - METRICS
      - LOGS
      type: uptrace
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Apply the YAML using `kubectl`

    ```bash theme={null}
    kubectl apply -f uptrace.yaml
    ```
  </Step>
