Datadog Output Plugin

This plugin writes to the Datadog Metrics API and requires an apikey which can be obtained here for the account.

Configuration

[[outputs.datadog]]
  ## Datadog API key
  apikey = "my-secret-key"

  ## Connection timeout.
  # timeout = "5s"

  ## Write URL override; useful for debugging.
  # url = "https://app.datadoghq.com/api/v1/series"

  ## Set http_proxy (telegraf uses the system wide proxy settings if it isn't set)
  # http_proxy_url = "http://localhost:8888"

Metrics

Datadog metric names are formed by joining the Telegraf metric name and the field key with a . character.

Field values are converted to floating point numbers. Strings and floats that cannot be sent over JSON, namely NaN and Inf, are ignored.
