What authentication details do I need to sync from Datadog to MySQL?

In order to set up your sync, you will need to create a DD_CLIENT_API_KEY and a DD_CLIENT_APP_KEY. Full details on how to do this can be found in the Datadog documentation. When you set up the app key, Datadog will give you the option to set an access scope for that particular key. Cloudquery only requires read access to sync data from Datadog to MySQL and you can limit the fields that the key grants access to as required.

How can I track the information that CloudQuery is reading from Datadog?

All of the requests that Cloudquery makes to the Datadog API when running a sync to MySQL will appear in the Datadog audit trail. You can use this to understand exactly what data is being read and adjust the scope of your app key if required.

What account details are required to set up a sync?

Alongside the App Key and API key, you’ll need to specify the name of your Datadog account in order to set up a sync. Full details on how to do this are contained in the authentication section of our integration documentation.

What versions of MySQL can CloudQuery sync to from Datadog?

By default, the CloudQuery MySQL integration supports versions 8.0 and later. If you need to sync to an earlier version of MySQL, please get in touch with the team and we’ll find a way to help.

Does the CloudQuery MySQL integration support MariaDB?

The CloudQuery MySQL integration does not yet fully support MariaDB. If this is important to your use case, then we would encourage you to upvote the odeon GitHub issue so that we can dedicate development resources to introducing full support.
