Use Observability Pipelines’ New Relic destination to send logs to New Relic.

Setup

Set up the New Relic destination and its environment variables when you set up a pipeline. The information below is configured in the pipelines UI.

Set up the destination

1. Select the data center region (US or EU) of your New Relic account.
2. Optionally, toggle the switch to enable Buffering Options.
   Note: Buffering options is in Preview. Contact your account manager to request access.
   • If left disabled, the maximum size for buffering is 500 events.
   • If enabled:
     1. Select the buffer type you want to set (Memory or Disk).
     2. Enter the buffer size and select the unit.

Set the environment variables

  • Stored in the environment variable: DD_OP_DESTINATION_NEW_RELIC_ACCOUNT_ID.
• New Relic license:
  • Stored in the environment variable: DD_OP_DESTINATION_NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY.
