# Logs Custom Destinations

Custom Destinations forward all the logs ingested to an external destination.

**Note**: Log forwarding is not available for the Government (US1-FED) site. Contact your account representative for more information.

See the [Custom Destinations Page](https://app.datadoghq.com/logs/pipelines/log-forwarding/custom-destinations) for a list of the custom destinations currently configured in web UI.
