Set up a Datadog connector

C1 provides identity governance for Datadog. Integrate your Datadog instance with C1 to run user access reviews (UARs) and enable just-in-time access requests.

A newer version of this connector is available. This version of the connector is no longer available for installation. If you’re setting up a Datadog connector with C1 for the first time, use the v2 version.

Capabilities

• Sync user identities from Datadog to C1

• Resources supported:

  • Roles

Add a new Datadog connector

This task requires either the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in C1.

1. In C1, navigate to Integrations > Connectors and click Add connector.

2. Search for Datadog and click Add.

3. Choose how to set up the new Datadog connector:

   • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with C1)

   • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

   • Create a new managed app

   Do you SSO into Datadog using your identity, SSO, or federation provider? If so, make sure to add the connector to the unmanaged Datadog app that was created automatically when you integrated your provider with C1, rather than creating a new managed app.

4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of C1 users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

   A Datadog connector owner must have the following permissions:

   • Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in C1
   • System Admin access in Datadog
5. Click Next.

Next steps

• If you are the connector owner, proceed to Configure your Datadog connector for instructions on integrating Datadog with C1.

• If someone else is the connector owner, C1 will notify them by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

Configure your Datadog connector

A user with the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in C1 and System Admin access in Datadog must perform this task.

Step 1: Locate your Datadog site

1. Navigate to the Datadog login screen and make a note of your Datadog site:

We’ll use this in Step 4.

Step 2: Create an API Key

2. Click API Keys and then click + New Key.

3. Enter a name for your new key, such as “C1”, and click Create Key.

4. Copy and save the newly created API key. We’ll use this in Step 4.

Step 3: Create an Application Key

1. Navigate back to Organization Settings.

2. Click Application Keys and then click + New Key.

3. Enter a name for your new key, such as “C1”, and click Create Key.

4. Copy and save the newly created application key. We’ll use this in Step 4.

Step 4: Add your Datadog credentials to C1

1. In C1, navigate to the Datadog connector by either:

   • Clicking the Set up connector link in the email you received about configuring the connector.

   • Navigate to Integrations > Connectors > Datadog (if there is more than one Datadog listed, click the one with your name listed as owner and the status Not connected).

2. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

3. Select your Datadog site from Step 1 from the list.

4. Paste the API key from Step 2 in the API key field.

5. Paste the application key from Step 3 in the Application key field.

6. Click Save.

7. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

Done. Your Datadog connector is now pulling access data into C1.
