Event Management

Overview

Ingest, enrich and normalize, and correlate your events from any source into actionable insights. Datadog automatically creates events from various products including monitors, Watchdog, and Error Tracking. You can also track events generated from the Agent and installed integrations. Event Management can also ingest events from any source, including alert events from third parties, change requests, deployments, configuration changes.

More than 100 Datadog integrations support events collection, including Kubernetes, Docker, Jenkins, Chef, Puppet, Amazon ECS or Autoscaling, Sentry, and Nagios.

Update to Datadog monitor events aggregation_key starting March 1, 2025: The Datadog monitor events aggregation_key is unique to each Monitor ID. Starting March 1st, this key will also include Monitor Group, making it unique per Monitor ID and Monitor Group. If you’re using monitor events aggregation_key in dashboard queries or the Event API, you must migrate to use @monitor.id. Reach out to support if you have any questions.
