Datadog Data Stream Parameters

The Datadog plugin data stream provides data streams for retrieving metrics, synthetic tests, and synthetic test runs. These streams let you monitor system and application performance, track test configurations, and analyze recent test executions.

By filtering on attributes such as metric name, test type, status, region, or tags, you can tailor the data to your specific monitoring and troubleshooting needs.
