Overview

If the language your service is written in is not supported natively section, use this page to manually tag your telemetry with Git information by setting environment variables.

Prerequisites

• Datadog Agent v7.35.0 or later is required.

Tag telemetry by setting environment variables

Set the DD_GIT_COMMIT_SHA and DD_GIT_REPOSITORY_URL environment variables on your application’s deployment:

export DD_GIT_COMMIT_SHA="<commitSha>"
export DD_GIT_REPOSITORY_URL="<git-provider.example/me/my-repo>"

Replace <commitSha> with the commit SHA used to build your application. You can retrieve this by running git rev-parse HEAD at build time, and it needs to be passed into the runtime environment variables. Replace <git-provider.example/me/my-repo> with your repository URL.

These environment variables add git.commit.sha and git.repository_url tags to your APM spans, linking your service to a specific commit in your source code repository.
