Connect Datadog with Resolve AI

Give your AI SRE eyes on Datadog. Resolve AI ingests metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, and monitors to investigate every alert, correlate changes across your stack, and surface root cause in minutes — not hours.

What is Datadog?

Datadog is a cloud-scale observability and security platform that unifies metrics, traces, and logs in one place. Engineering teams use it to monitor infrastructure and applications end to end — from Kubernetes clusters and serverless functions to APM traces, real-user monitoring, and SLOs — with more than 900 built-in integrations.

For teams running production on Datadog, it is the system of record for what is happening right now. Connecting it to Resolve AI turns that telemetry into action: every monitor that fires becomes an autonomous investigation that queries your Datadog metrics, logs, traces, and dashboards the way an experienced SRE would.

What Resolve AI does with your Datadog data

Resolve AI agents work with Datadog the way your best engineer would — querying metrics, scanning logs, and reading dashboards — except they start the moment a monitor fires.

Autonomous alert investigation

Every Datadog monitor that fires kicks off an investigation. Resolve AI queries the relevant metrics, logs, and traces before you even open your laptop.

Cross-stack correlation

Link a latency spike in Datadog APM to the deploy that caused it. Pairing Datadog with your code and infra integrations connects symptoms to changes.

Dashboards as context

Resolve AI reads your Datadog dashboards and notebooks to understand what "normal" looks like for each service before reasoning about anomalies.

Working theories with evidence

Investigations end in ranked hypotheses, each backed by the exact Datadog queries, charts, and log lines that support them.

Service-map aware

With the service map enabled, Resolve AI traces issues across dependencies — upstream causes, downstream symptoms.

Alerts that resolve themselves

Wire monitors to @webhook-resolveai and routine alerts arrive with the investigation already done — root cause, evidence, suggested fix.

Datadog integration capabilities

Everything the Datadog integration supports, with step-by-step guides in the Datadog docs.

Scoped read-only access

Connect with a Datadog API key and App key restricted to read scopes — APM, dashboards, events, logs, metrics, monitors, notebooks, RUM, SLOs, teams, and usage. Service accounts are supported.

Guided UI connection

Add a named connection in the Resolve UI: paste your keys, set the site domain, scope to specific environments, and toggle the service map — no agent install required.

View docs ↗

Satellite (Kubernetes) deployment

Keep credentials inside your cluster: store keys in a Kubernetes secret, declare the integration in resolve-values.yaml, and deploy with Helm.

View docs ↗

Alert webhooks

Route monitors to Resolve with @webhook-resolveai so every alert opens an investigation automatically — including monitors managed with Terraform.

View docs ↗

Environment matching

Data is grouped by environment (production, staging, us-west) and matched across your Satellite and observability tools, so alerts, logs, and dashboards link up during investigations.

View docs ↗

Sensitive data redaction

Enable redaction per connection — in the UI toggle or via redactionConfig in the Satellite values file — so no PII or PHI leaves your environment.

Only the data that matters

Resolve AI reads the minimum Datadog data needed to understand, reason, and act with confidence. Nothing more.

That's it. Access is read-only, scoped to the data types above, and every connection supports sensitive data redaction.

Connect Datadog in minutes

Each integration follows a simple, guided flow — in the Resolve UI or via the Resolve Satellite for Kubernetes-native, credentials-stay-with-you deployments.

  1. 01

    Create scoped keys

    In Datadog, create an API key and an App key named "resolve" with read-only scopes for metrics, logs, APM, dashboards, monitors, and events.

  2. 02

    Connect in Resolve

    Open the Datadog integration in Resolve, paste your keys, set your site domain, and optionally enable sensitive data redaction and the service map.

  3. 03

    Route your alerts

    Add @webhook-resolveai to your Datadog monitors so every alert automatically kicks off a Resolve AI investigation.

  4. 04

    Start investigating

    Once the connection shows a green checkmark, ask your first question and watch Resolve AI investigate with your live Datadog data.

Secure by design

Flexible and secure integrations — the same controls across every connection to your stack.

Tightly scoped permissions

Read-only access to the minimum Datadog data needed to investigate. Tokens are scoped, never broad admin credentials.

Advanced control

Token or API-key auth with encrypted, private connections. Deploy via the Resolve Satellite to keep credentials inside your cluster.

Data redaction

No PII, PHI, or sensitive data. Redaction is quick to enable per connection — only the minimum data required to deliver value.

Frequently asked questions

What permissions does Resolve AI need in Datadog?+

Read-only scopes only: apm_read, dashboards_read, events_read, logs_read_data, metrics_read, monitors_read, slos_read, and similar read scopes. Resolve AI never needs write or admin access to your Datadog account.

Does Resolve AI store my Datadog data?+

Resolve AI ingests only the minimum data required to investigate — logs, traces, metrics, events, and dashboards. Sensitive data redaction can be enabled per connection so no PII or PHI leaves your environment.

Can I connect multiple Datadog accounts or sites?+

Yes. Each connection is named (for example Datadog-Main or Datadog-EU) and you can scope each one to specific environments. Environment names must match across your tools so Resolve can link alerts, logs, and dashboards.

Can I deploy the integration without sharing credentials?+

Yes. With the Resolve Satellite you store your Datadog API and App keys in a Kubernetes secret inside your own cluster and connect via Helm — credentials never leave your infrastructure.

How do Datadog alerts reach Resolve AI?+

Through Datadog webhooks. You create a webhook token in Resolve, register it in the Datadog Webhooks integration, and add @webhook-resolveai to each monitor — including monitors managed with Terraform.

Connect at least two integrations — like Telemetry + Code — to unlock cross-stack correlations, such as linking a performance spike directly to a recent commit. Browse all integrations.
