Node.js (version 16 or higher) 2. Datadog account with: - API key - Found in Organization Settings > API Keys - Application key - Found in Organization Settings > Application Keys ## Installation ### Via npm (recommended) ```bash npm install -g datadog-mcp-server ``` ### From Source 1. Clone this repository 2. Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 3. Build the project: ```bash npm run build ``` ## Configuration You can configure the Datadog MCP server using either environment variables or command-line arguments. ### Environment Variables Create a `.env` file with your Datadog credentials: ``` DD_API_KEY=your_api_key_here DD_APP_KEY=your_app_key_here DD_SITE=datadoghq.com DD_LOGS_SITE=datadoghq.com DD_METRICS_SITE=datadoghq.com ``` **Note**: `DD_LOGS_SITE` and `DD_METRICS_SITE` are optional and will default to the value of `DD_SITE` if not specified. ### Command-line Arguments Basic usage with global site setting: ```bash datadog-mcp-server --apiKey=your_api_key --appKey=your_app_key --site=datadoghq.eu ``` Advanced usage with service-specific endpoints: ```bash datadog-mcp-server --apiKey=your_api_key --appKey=your_app_key --site=datadoghq.com --logsSite=logs.datadoghq.com --metricsSite=metrics.datadoghq.com ``` Note: Site arguments don't need `https://` - it will be added automatically. ### Regional Endpoints Different Datadog regions have different endpoints: - US (Default): `datadoghq.com` - EU: `datadoghq.eu` - US3 (GovCloud): `ddog-gov.com` - US5: `us5.datadoghq.com` - AP1: `ap1.datadoghq.com` ### Usage with Claude Desktop Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "datadog": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "datadog-mcp-server", "--apiKey", "<YOUR_API_KEY>", "--appKey", "<YOUR_APP_KEY>", "--site", "<YOUR_DD_SITE>(e.g us5.datadoghq.com)" ] } } } ``` For more advanced configurations with separate endpoints for logs and metrics: ```json { "mcpServers": { "datadog": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "datadog-mcp-server", "--apiKey", "<YOUR_API_KEY>", "--appKey", "<YOUR_APP_KEY>", "--site", "<YOUR_DD_SITE>", "--logsSite", "<YOUR_LOGS_SITE>", "--metricsSite", "<YOUR_METRICS_SITE>" ] } } } ``` Locations for the Claude Desktop config file: - MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` - Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` ## Usage with MCP Inspector To use with the MCP Inspector tool: ```bash npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector datadog-mcp-server --apiKey=your_api_key --appKey=your_app_key ``` ## Available Tools The server provides these MCP tools: - **get-monitors**: Fetch monitors with optional filtering - **get-monitor**: Get details of a specific monitor by ID - **get-dashboards**: List all dashboards - **get-dashboard**: Get a specific dashboard by ID - **get-metrics**: List available metrics - **get-metric-metadata**: Get metadata for a specific metric - **get-events**: Fetch events within a time range - **get-incidents**: List incidents with optional filtering - **search-logs**: Search logs with advanced query filtering - **aggregate-logs**: Perform analytics and aggregations on log data ## Examples ### Example: Get Monitors ```javascript { "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get-monitors", "arguments": { "groupStates": ["alert", "warn"], "limit": 5 } } } ``` ### Example: Get a Dashboard ```javascript { "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get-dashboard", "arguments": { "dashboardId": "abc-def-123" } } } ``` ### Example: Search Logs ```javascript { "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "search-logs", "arguments": { "filter": { "query": "service:web-app status:error", "from": "now-15m", "to": "now" }, "sort": "-timestamp", "limit": 20 } } } ``` ### Example: Aggregate Logs ```javascript { "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "aggregate-logs", "arguments": { "filter": { "query": "service:web-app", "from": "now-1h", "to": "now" }, "compute": [ { "aggregation": "count" } ], "groupBy": [ { "facet": "status", "limit": 10, "sort": { "aggregation": "count", "order": "desc" } } ] } } } ``` ### Example: Get Incidents ```javascript { "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get-incidents", "arguments": { "includeArchived": false, "query": "state:active", "pageSize": 10 } } } ``` ## Troubleshooting If you encounter a 403 Forbidden error, verify that: 1. Your API key and Application key are correct 2. The keys have the necessary permissions to access the requested resources 3. Your account has access to the requested data 4. You're using the correct endpoint for your region (e.g., `datadoghq.eu` for EU customers) ## Debugging If you encounter issues, check Claude Desktop's MCP logs: ```bash # 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 ``` Common issues: - 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 ## License MIT
