What Stacksync syncs in Datadog.

These objects sync between Datadog and any connected system, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution. Custom fields are picked up from the live schema where Datadog exposes them.

Monitors
Alert definitions with query, thresholds, and current state via the v1 Monitors API, which supports full create, update, and delete; Stacksync reads alert state into a warehouse or provisions and updates monitors from a config source.
Logs
Log events searched via the v2 Logs search endpoint by time window and submittable through the log intake API; commonly streamed to a warehouse for retention beyond Datadog's storage period.
Events
The event stream (deploys, alerts, comments) searched via the v2 Events endpoint and posted via POST /api/v1/events; used to correlate deploy and incident timelines or to publish deploy and pipeline events into Datadog.
Dashboards
Dashboard definitions and widgets via the v1 Dashboards API with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit, or created and updated programmatically from a source of truth.
Metrics
Time-series metrics queried in aggregate windows through the query API and submitted via POST /api/v1/series; individual raw points cannot be extracted beyond retention.
Incidents
Incident records from the v2 Incidents API with full CRUD, including status and timeline fields; landed in a database for MTTR reporting or created and updated from an external incident workflow.
Service Level Objectives
SLO definitions and status history via the v1 SLO API with full CRUD; read out for reliability and error-budget reporting, or provisioned and updated from a reliability config.
Hosts
Infrastructure host inventory with tags and metadata from the v1 host list API; loaded into a CMDB or warehouse for asset tracking, and hosts can be muted or unmuted via the API.
API surface

How Stacksync connects to Datadog.

The connector runs on Datadog's native API. Stacksync manages authentication, rate limits, retries, and schema changes so your team does not maintain integration code.

Connection
REST API (v1 and v2)
Authentication
API key (DD-API-KEY) plus an Application key (DD-APPLICATION-KEY) sent as request headers; application keys are tied to the creating user and inherit that user's permissions and authorization scopes.
Change detection
Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor); monitor alerts can also push via the Webhooks notification integration. No modified-date CDC on mutable objects.
Rate limits
Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.

What ships with Datadog

Connect Datadog for flexible, real-time data sync.

Real-time sync, workflow automation, event queues, EDI, and monitoring, for every connection.

Real-time

Two-way sync

Changes in Datadog instantly reflect across connected systems. No stale data, no manual imports.

No-code + pro-code

Workflow automation

Trigger automated workflows whenever Datadog data changes, update records, fire webhooks, or kick off sequences without brittle API scripts.

At scale

Event queues

Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Datadog record.

Observability

Monitoring

Track your Datadog sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions.

Use cases

What teams run on the Datadog connector.

Datadog is the observability system of record for engineering organizations, owned by SRE, DevOps, and platform teams. It ingests metrics, logs, traces, and events and holds the Monitors, Dashboards, SLOs, and Incidents those teams run on. Its REST API is bidirectional: teams read that telemetry and alerting config out for retention, correlation, and reliability reporting, and also create or update Monitors, Dashboards, and SLOs and submit Events and Metrics into Datadog from other systems.

  • SRE / reliability engineers
  • DevOps engineers
  • Platform engineering
  • Observability leads
  • Engineering managers
  1. Stream Logs from a saved Datadog query into Snowflake or BigQuery to retain and analyze log events beyond Datadog's storage window.

  2. Sync Monitors and their alert state into Postgres so reliability teams query alert history and noisy-monitor trends in SQL.

  3. Provision and update Datadog Monitors from a config database or Git so alert definitions stay consistent across teams and environments.

  4. Publish deploy and pipeline Events, and submit custom Metrics, into Datadog from CI/CD or a data pipeline to enrich dashboards and correlation.

  5. Load Events and Incidents into a warehouse to correlate deploys, alerts, and outages on one timeline for post-incident review.

  6. Pull the Hosts inventory into a CMDB or database for asset tracking, tag hygiene, and cost allocation across teams.

All Datadog integrations

Pick the system you need to keep in sync with Datadog. Each page covers the sync setup, field mapping, and common workflows for that pair.

How it works

Set up Datadog in minutes, without APIs.

Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.

FAQ

Datadog connector FAQ

What can I sync with the Datadog connector?

Datadog's core objects — Monitors, Logs, Events, Dashboards and custom fields — can sync with any of 302 other systems. Every integration is real-time and bidirectional, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution.

How does Stacksync connect to Datadog?

Via REST API (v1 and v2), authenticated with API key (DD-API-KEY) plus an Application key (DD-APPLICATION-KEY) sent as request headers; application keys are tied to the creating user and inherit that user's permissions and authorization scopes.. Changes are detected as follows — polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor); monitor alerts can also push via the Webhooks notification integration. No modified-date CDC on mutable objects.. Stacksync manages rate limits, retries, and schema changes automatically.

Is the Datadog connector two-way?

Yes. Changes made in Datadog propagate to the connected system and vice versa, in milliseconds. One-way flows are also supported when a direction should stay read-only.

How long does a Datadog integration take to set up?

Most Datadog integrations go live in minutes: authenticate Datadog and the other system, pick objects and fields, and enable the sync. No code and no infrastructure to manage.

Is Datadog data secure in transit?

Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA compliant. Datadog data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means records are not retained after a sync operation.
