Datadog Integration

Datadog integration will enable Annie to ingest monitoring and observability data, providing a unified view of your infrastructure’s health and performance.

​
Setup Guide

  1. Go to the Anyshift integrations page
  2. Navigate to the Monitoring section
  3. Create Datadog API credentials to connect your Datadog account
⚠️ For now, Anyshift support only one set of credentials per Anyshift account. Ping us if it is a blocker for you, we will prioritize it.

​
1. Datadog Site URL

Usually datadoghq.com but it can vary based on your region (e.g., datadoghq.eu for Europe).

​
2. Datadog API key

Create an API key in your Datadog account settings. This key will be used to authenticate requests from Annie to Datadog.

​
3. Datadog Application Key

Create an application key in your Datadog account settings. This key is used to authorize API requests and should be kept secure.

​
4. Required Permissions

Your Datadog Application Key needs specific scopes to work with Anyshift: Minimum Required:
  • read_hosts - Required for basic connectivity check
For Full Functionality:
  • monitors_read - Access monitor definitions and status
  • logs_read - Query and retrieve log data
  • dashboards_read - List and view dashboards
  • metrics_read - Query metrics data
  • incidents_read - View incident information
  • apm_read - Access APM traces and service data
  • timeseries_query - Query time series metrics

​
How It Works

Once connected, Anyshift automatically ingests logs and metrics from Datadog. When an incident occurs, Annie’s AI agent:
  • Correlates Datadog logs and metrics with your resource graph
  • Traces request chains across services
  • Surfaces root causes and actionable insights
  • Reduces the need to manually jump between dashboards
