The Datadog plugin provides access to the following resources from your Datadog organization:

​
Prerequisites

You’ll need a Datadog account with access to:
  • Datadog API: An API key with appropriate permissions
  • Datadog Application Key: An application key for accessing the Datadog APIs
  • Software Catalog: Access to Datadog’s Software Catalog feature (where services and APIs are defined)
  • Teams: Access to Datadog Teams (if you want team relationship data)
The plugin uses Datadog’s REST APIs to discover entities and their relationships.

​
Configuration

Configure the Datadog plugin by running uv run unpage configure or by editing the ~/.unpage/profiles/<profile_name>/config.yaml file: 
plugins:
  # ...
  datadog:
    enabled: true
    api_key: "your-datadog-api-key"
    application_key: "your-datadog-application-key"
Alternatively, you can set these credentials as environment variables: 
export DATADOG_API_KEY="your-datadog-api-key"
export DATADOG_APP_KEY="your-datadog-application-key"
The plugin will automatically use environment variables if no credentials are specified in the configuration file.

search_logs

Search Datadog for logs within a given time range.Arguments
​
query
string
required
The search query. Use Datadog’s log search syntax to filter logs by service, host, status, tags, or message content. For example: “service:web”, “host:app01”, “status:error”, or “ERROR”.
​
min_time
datetime
required
The starting time for the search range (ISO 8601 timestamp). Logs generated at or after this time will be included in the results.
​
max_time
datetime
required
The ending time for the search range (ISO 8601 timestamp). Logs generated at or before this time will be included in the results.
Returns DatadogLogSearchResult: An object containing:
  • results: Array of log events with details including timestamp, host, service, status, tags, and attributes
  • truncated: Boolean indicating if results were truncated due to response size limits or timeout
Note: Results are automatically truncated if they exceed response size limits or if the search takes longer than 10 seconds to ensure optimal performance.
