Plugin configurationOverview #
Datadog Source Plugin
The CloudQuery Datadog plugin extracts your Datadog information and loads it into any supported CloudQuery destination (e.g. PostgreSQL, BigQuery, Snowflake, and more).
Authentication #
CloudQuery requires only
DD_CLIENT_API_KEY
and DD_CLIENT_APP_KEY
. Follow this guide for how to create an API key and app key for CloudQuery.CloudQuery requires only read permissions (we will never make any changes to your Datadog account),
so, following the principle of the least privilege, it's recommended to grant it read-only permissions.
Query Examples #
Find all not verified users #
SELECT
"attributes" ->> 'name' AS username
FROM
datadog_users
WHERE
("attributes" ->> 'verified')::boolean is distinct FROM TRUE
