## Overview{% #overview %}

Use [Stripe Projects](https://docs.stripe.com/projects) to provision and manage Datadog from the Stripe CLI. This flow creates a Datadog organization and adds its API key, site, and organization name to your application's `.env` file.

## Prerequisites{% #prerequisites %}

- A Stripe account with an email address that isn't associated with an existing Datadog account

## Setup{% #setup %}

### Install the Stripe CLI and Projects plugin{% #install-the-stripe-cli-and-projects-plugin %}

1. Install the [Stripe CLI](https://docs.stripe.com/cli/install) version 1.43.3 or later:

   ```shell
   npm install -g @stripe/cli
   ```

For other installation methods, see [Install the Stripe CLI](https://docs.stripe.com/cli/install).

1. Install the Stripe Projects plugin:

   ```shell
   stripe plugin install projects
   ```

### Provision Datadog{% #provision-datadog %}

1. Initialize Stripe Projects. Run this command in the directory you want to use for your project, such as the root of your application repository:

   ```shell
   stripe projects init
   ```

1. Add Datadog Observability:

   ```shell
   stripe projects add datadog/observability
   ```

1. Confirm that the `.env` file in your project directory contains your Datadog API key, site, and organization name.

### Upgrade your plan{% #upgrade-your-plan %}

To keep access to Datadog after your free trial ends, upgrade to pay-as-you-go. If your Stripe account has a saved payment method, this takes one command:

```shell
stripe projects upgrade datadog-observability
```

## Access Datadog{% #access-datadog %}

1. Go to the [Datadog login page](https://app.datadoghq.com/account/login).
1. Select **Sign in with Google** if you use a Google account to sign in to Stripe. Otherwise, select **Forgot password?** and enter the email address from your Stripe account to set a Datadog password.

## Remove Datadog from Stripe Projects{% #remove-datadog-from-stripe-projects %}

Removing Datadog revokes your API key and takes the integration out of your Stripe project. Your Datadog organization and its data aren't deleted and remain available in the Datadog UI.

```shell
stripe projects remove datadog-observability
```
