Datadog

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with the Datadog API.

- Monitoring: Access monitor data and configurations
- Dashboards: Retrieve and view dashboard definitions
- Metrics: Query available metrics and their metadata
- Events: Search and retrieve events within timeframes
- Logs: Search logs with advanced filtering and sorting options
- Incidents: Access incident management data
- API Integration: Direct integration with Datadog's v1 and v2 APIs
- Comprehensive Error Handling: Clear error messages for API and authentication issues
- Service-Specific Endpoints: Support for different endpoints for logs and metrics
- Node.js (version 16 or higher)
- Datadog account with:

- API key - Found in Organization Settings > API Keys
- Application key - Found in Organization Settings > Application Keys

For improved security, you can scope your Application Key to grant only the minimum permissions required by this MCP server. By default, Application Keys inherit all permissions from the user who created them, butscoped Application Keysallow you to follow the principle of least privilege.

For more advanced configurations with separate endpoints for logs and metrics:

If you encounter a 403 Forbidden error, verify that:
- Your API key and Application key are correct
- The keys have the necessary permissions to access the requested resources
- Your account has access to the requested data
- You're using the correct endpoint for your region (e.g.,datadoghq.eufor EU customers)

If you encounter issues, check Claude Desktop's MCP logs:

# On macOS tail -n 20 -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp.log # On Windows Get-Content -Path "$env:APPDATA\Claude\Logs\mcp.log" -Tail 20 -Wait

- 403 Forbidden: Authentication issue with Datadog API keys
- API key or App key format invalid: Ensure you're using the full key strings
- Site configuration errors: Make sure you're using the correct Datadog domain
- Endpoint mismatches: Verify that service-specific endpoints are correctly set if you're using separate domains for logs and metrics
