Log Routing and Monitoring

Stream your workspace pipeline logs to external monitoring platforms for real-time visibility and alerting.

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.
