Datadog Log Streaming

Send workspace logs directly to Datadog for monitoring, alerting, and observability across your pipelines.

Requirements: A Datadog API key and an active Datadog account.

Setting Up Datadog

1. Open Workspace Settings and scroll to the External Logging Services section.
2. Click Add Credential under the Datadog section.
3. Fill in the following details:
   • API Key : Your Datadog API key.
   • Region : Select the Datadog region that matches your account to ensure logs reach the correct data centre.
   • Service Name (optional) : Tag logs with a service name to filter them and build focused dashboards in Datadog.
4. Click Save : logs will begin streaming to Datadog immediately.

Managing Your Datadog Credentials

• Pause streaming : Click the Active toggle on your Datadog credentials card to switch it to Paused. Logs will stop streaming without removing your credentials.
• Resume streaming : Click the Paused toggle to switch back to Active. Log streaming resumes immediately.
• Delete credentials : Remove your Datadog credentials at any time, for example when rotating API keys or switching regions. Re-add them to resume streaming.

How It Works

Logs are shipped from the Logback layer directly to Datadog - no extra infrastructure required. Settings take effect at runtime, so you can adjust configuration without redeploying your workspace.
