Connection and Credentials

When Use stored credentials from the adapter is toggled off, some of the connection fields below are required to create the connection, while other fields are optional.

  1. Datadog Domain - The hostname or IP address of the Datadog server.
  2. Application Key and API Key - API and Application Keys associated with a user account that has the Required Permissions to fetch assets.
📘

Note

You must generate the API and Application Keys from two locations in the Datadog admin console. In order for this to work, you need to pair both keys in the adapter wizard, as Datadog doesn't authenticate using only the Application Key — even with the scope of the key specified.

  1. Verify SSL - Verify the SSL certificate offered by the value supplied in Datadog Domain. For more details, see SSL Trust & CA Settings.
  2. HTTPS Proxy (optional) - A proxy to use when connecting to the value supplied in Datadog Domain.

  • Gateway Name - Select the Gateway through which to connect to perform the action.
