Datadog Logs Setup Guide

To start sending log data from Datable into Datadog Logs, you will need an API Key.

Step-by-Step

Here's a step-by-step guide to getting a Datadog Logs API key:

  1. Navigate to Organization Settings Click on your profile icon in the bottom left corner. Select "Organization Settings" from the menu. In the left sidebar, click on "API Keys"
  2. Generate a new API Key Click the "New Key" button. Give your new key a name (e.g., "Logs API Key"). Once generated, the new API key will be displayed. Copy this key immediately, as you won't be able to see it again. Save the API Key securely.
  3. Enter your API key into Datable
  4. Enter the API key into a Datable export Navigate to the pipeline you wish to export data from. Add an export step and select the "Datadog Logs" option. Paste your API key, and click "Save".
