Datadog

Pull user, role, license info and more to connect across tools.

Overview

Use the Datadog integration to identify problems with your users and licenses before they occur. Integrating with Datadog enables you to build boards that correlate fields within Datadog and with other connected tools. You can also run actions on fetched data without ever leaving Stitchflow.

Boards

When building a board, you can select any supported Datadog resource as your object to indicate the data you want to surface on your board. We automatically determine the primary field for each object. The primary field is meant to be a unique representation of each record in a board.

An object in Stitchflow is a data type that is used to treat several different pieces of data as one unit.

Adding fields

Click Add field to select fields from both within Datadog and across your other connected tools. We only show fields that can be joined with your chosen object.

Triggering actions

Click Integration actions in the top right of any board to view all available actions across your connected integrations. When selecting an action, you'll be prompted to fill out all required inputs necessary to run the action. Changes and updates made via actions will persist to all boards.

Stitchflow fetches Datadog data every 24 hours.
