Setup

Generate API credentials in Plivo

Plivo Auth ID and Auth Token

1. Sign in to Plivo using an Owner, Admin or Developer account.

2. Navigate to the Overview section.

3. In the Account section, get the Auth ID and Auth Token values.

   If you need to generate a new Auth Token, go to Settings > Credentials, then click Generate Auth Token.

Plivo subaccount Auth ID and Auth Token (optional)

You can use the credentials of a Plivo subaccount to retrieve data specific to that subaccount, rather than the entire account.

1. Sign in to Plivo using an Owner, Admin or Developer account.
2. Navigate to Account > Settings > Subaccounts.
3. Get the Auth ID and Auth Token of the subaccount that you want to use.

Message Expiry Time (Optional)

• Set the “message expiry time” parameter in seconds in Datadog to match the message expiry time configured in Plivo. Ensure the expiry time remains synchronized with the configuration in Plivo to avoid fetching unsettled messages. The default value is 3 hours (10,800 seconds). Message ingestion into Datadog will be delayed by this duration to ensure only settled messages are fetched. Settled messages are fully processed and finalized, while unsettled messages are still in the queue. See Message Expiry to learn more.

Connect your Plivo Account to Datadog
