Datadog

The robomotion datadog CLI connects to Datadog for infrastructure monitoring and alerting. It submits custom metrics, queries logs and events, creates and manages monitors with alert conditions, schedules downtimes, and handles incidents.

When to use

• Submit custom metrics or gauge values to Datadog
• Query logs, search events, and analyze time-series data
• Create, update, or mute Datadog monitors and alerts
• Schedule maintenance downtimes and manage incidents

Prerequisites

• robomotion CLI installed
• Package installed: robomotion install datadog
• Datadog API and application keys configured via Robomotion vault

IMPORTANT: Session Mode Required for Multi-Step Operations

Each CLI command runs as a separate process — connection IDs from connect do NOT persist across calls. You MUST use --session on connect and pass --session-id to all subsequent commands.

Workflow

1. Install (once): robomotion install datadog
2. Connect with session:

   robomotion datadog datadog_connect --session --output json
   # → {"outClientId":"<client-id>","session_id":"<session-id>"}
   

3. Use the returned client-id and session-id in all subsequent commands:

   robomotion datadog datadog_submit_metric --client-id "<client-id>" --metric-name <name> --value <val> --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   

4. Disconnect when done:

   robomotion datadog datadog_disconnect --client-id "<client-id>" --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   

Always append --output json to get structured JSON results.
