Datadog Integration

The Datadog integration imports metrics, logs, and monitors from your Datadog account into AtlasAI. This enables you to unify Datadog telemetry with other data sources for cross-platform correlation and AI-powered root cause analysis.

Prerequisites

• A Datadog account with API and Application keys
• API key with read permissions for metrics, logs, and monitors

Setup

Step 1: Generate API credentials in Datadog.

Navigate to Datadog → Organization Settings → API Keys and create a new API key. Then go to Application Keys and create an application key.

Step 2: Configure the integration in AtlasAI.

1. Navigate to Settings → Integrations → Datadog
2. Click Add Connection
3. Enter your credentials:
   • Datadog Site: Select your region (e.g., datadoghq.com, datadoghq.eu)
   • API Key: Your Datadog API key
   • Application Key: Your Datadog application key
4. Select the data to import:
   • Metrics: Choose specific metrics or use tag filters
   • Monitors: Import active monitors as AtlasAI alert rules
   • Logs: Forward log data (requires Datadog log forwarding configuration)
5. Click Test Connection to verify
6. Click Save & Enable

Step 3: Verify data is flowing.

Navigate to Settings → Integrations → Datadog and check the connection status. Metrics should begin appearing within 2 minutes.

Data Mapping

Imported Monitors

When you import Datadog monitors, AtlasAI creates corresponding alert rules that:

• Preserve the original monitor query
• Map Datadog severity levels to AtlasAI severity (P1–P5)
• Trigger alerts that participate in AtlasAI correlation and incident creation
• Link back to the original Datadog monitor for reference
