MCP

Give your agent Datadog tools

Every Datadog action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's Datadog account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "datadog",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// e.g. run Get Account Info:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "datadog-get-account-info",
  arguments: {},
})

API PROXY

Call the Datadog API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the Datadog API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://api.example.com/v1/me",
})

// Any allowed Datadog endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

SDK

Run Datadog actions from your backend

Connect a user's Datadog account once, then run Get Account Info on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "datadog-get-account-info",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    datadog: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
  },
})

TOOLS

Datadog actions

On-demand operations your product or agent can configure and run on behalf of a connected user.

EVENTS

Datadog triggers

Event sources your backend can deploy for users and receive through a webhook.

MULTI-APP

Use Datadog with other popular apps

Most products don't stop at one integration. Pair Datadog with the other apps your users rely on, and ship use cases that span both.
