Connect Datadog to Specky
Connect error tracking, monitors, and observability dashboards.
Specky pulls from Datadog on a schedule
Once connected, Specky keeps itself up to date with Datadog in the background — refreshing when you open your workspace, or on demand whenever you want it now rather than later.

Before you connect it
What does Specky do with my Datadog data?
It becomes part of your product graph: searchable, clustered with related feedback from your other tools, and quotable in PRDs and decisions. It is never used to train AI models, and it stays in your workspace.
Will Specky import my existing Datadog history?
Yes. The first sync brings in recent history so you have something to work with straight away, and Specky keeps up with new activity after that.
What do I need to connect Datadog?
API Key, Application Key — all of it from your own Datadog account. The full walkthrough is in the setup guide.
How long does it take to set up?
A few minutes. You create a credential in Datadog, paste it into Specky, and you're connected. Step-by-step instructions are in the setup guide.
Can I disconnect Datadog later?
Yes, from Settings → Integrations, at any time. Disconnecting removes the connection and the data it brought in.
Do I need to be on a paid plan?
Every plan can connect integrations; the number you can run at once depends on your plan, and a few providers are limited to Scale. Settings → Usage shows where you stand.
