Overview
Track request level metrics for your Bonsai clusters to:
- Visualize the performance of your clusters
- Correlate search performance with application performance
- Create alerts
Setup
Integrating your cluster with Datadog requires submitting your API key to the bonsai app.
Acquire API key
In Datadog, navigate to Integrations –> API and copy your API Key.
Submit API key
Navigate to Bonsai –> Clusters and click the cluster you want to integrate. Navigate to the Manage tab and scroll to the bottom of the page.
Under the “Datadog Integration” section paste your API key and click “Activate Datadog”.
Verify
If your key is valid, you should see the integration as active.
Within a few minutes, request metrics are available in your Datadog dashboard.
