To create and manage Datadog resources with the Datadog Operator, use the DatadogGenericResource custom resource definition (CRD). DatadogGenericResource uses the Datadog API JSON payload for each supported resource type in spec.jsonSpec.

DatadogGenericResource is the preferred CRD for Datadog resources that are supported by both DatadogGenericResource and older resource-specific CRDs, such as DatadogMonitor, DatadogDashboard, and DatadogSLO.

Prerequisites

• Helm
• kubectl CLI
• Datadog Operator v1.12+
• Datadog API and application keys with permissions for the resources you create

Supported resources

Setup

1. Run the installation command, substituting your Datadog API and application keys:

   helm install datadog-operator datadog/datadog-operator \
     --set apiKey=<DATADOG_API_KEY> \
     --set appKey=<DATADOG_APP_KEY> \
     --set datadogCRDs.crds.datadogGenericResources=true \
     --set datadogGenericResource.enabled=true
   

2. Create a file with the spec of your DatadogGenericResource configuration.

   Example: Monitor

   datadog-generic-resource-monitor.yaml

   Copy

      apiVersion: datadoghq.com/v1alpha1
      kind: DatadogGenericResource
      metadata:
        name: example-monitor
        namespace: <operator namespace>
      spec:
        type: monitor
        jsonSpec: |-
          {
            "name": "Example Monitor",
            "type": "metric alert",
            "query": "avg(last_10m):avg:system.cpu.user{*} > 80",
            "message": "CPU usage is high",
            "tags": [
              "team:example"
            ],
            "options": {
              "notify_no_data": false
            }
          }
      

3. Deploy your DatadogGenericResource:

   kubectl apply -f /path/to/your/datadog-generic-resource-monitor.yaml
