# Datadog

> Send events, query metrics, manage monitors, and create incidents in Datadog.

# Datadog

React to Datadog alerts automatically — mute monitors during maintenance, create incidents when alerts fire, post events to the event stream, and query metric data to inform automation logic.

## Authentication

**Auth type:** API Key + Application Key

Create both keys in [Datadog → Organization Settings → API Keys / Application Keys](https://app.datadoghq.com/organization-settings/api-keys).

| Credential          | Description                                                             |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **API Key**         | Datadog API key                                                         |
| **Application Key** | Datadog application key (required for read operations)                  |
| **Site**            | Optional — set to `datadoghq.eu` for EU customers. Leave blank for US1. |

## Triggers

| Trigger              | When it fires                        |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **Alert Triggered**  | A monitor transitions to ALERT state |
| **Alert Recovered**  | A monitor recovers from ALERT state  |
| **Incident Created** | A new incident is opened in Datadog  |

## Actions

| Action              | Key inputs                                                                      | Key outputs                      |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| **Send Event**      | `title`, `text`, `alertType` (info/warning/error/success), `tags`, `host`       | eventId, url                     |
| **Query Metrics**   | `query` (Datadog metric query), `from` (seconds ago or Unix timestamp), `to`    | series\[], queryTime             |
| **Get Monitor**     | `monitorId`                                                                     | monitorId, name, status, type    |
| **Mute Monitor**    | `monitorId`, `end` (ISO 8601 datetime, blank = indefinite)                      | monitorId, name, status          |
| **Create Incident** | `title`, `severity` (SEV-1 to SEV-5), `customerImpacted`, `notificationMessage` | incidentId, title, severity, url |
| **List Monitors**   | `status` filter, `limit`                                                        | monitors\[], count               |

<Note>
  For `Query Metrics`, if `from` is less than 86400 (one day in seconds), it is interpreted as "N seconds ago from now". Otherwise it is treated as an absolute Unix timestamp.
