datadog-api-client 1.11.0

Collection of all Datadog Public endpoints

datadog-api-client-python

This repository contains a Python API client for the Datadog API.

Requirements

Building and using the API client library requires Python 3.6+.

Installation

To install the API client library, simply execute:

pip install datadog-api-client

Getting Started

Please follow the installation instruction and execute the following Python code:

from datadog_api_client import ApiClient, Configuration
from datadog_api_client.v1.api.monitors_api import MonitorsApi
from datadog_api_client.v1.model.monitor import Monitor
from datadog_api_client.v1.model.monitor_type import MonitorType

body = Monitor(
    name="example",
    type=MonitorType("log alert"),
    query='logs("service:foo AND type:error").index("main").rollup("count").by("source").last("5m") > 2',
    message="some message Notify: @hipchat-channel",
    tags=["test:example", "env:ci"],
    priority=3,
)

configuration = Configuration()
with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    api_instance = MonitorsApi(api_client)
    response = api_instance.create_monitor(body=body)
    print(response)

Unstable Endpoints

This client includes access to Datadog API endpoints while they are in an unstable state and may undergo breaking changes. An extra configuration step is required to enable these endpoints:

configuration.unstable_operations["<OperationName>"] = True

where <OperationName> is the name of the method used to interact with that endpoint. For example: list_log_indexes, or get_logs_index

Changing Server

When talking to a different server, like the eu instance, change the server_variables on your configuration object:

configuration.server_variables["site"] = "datadoghq.eu"

Disable compressed payloads

If you want to disable GZIP compressed responses, set the compress flag on your configuration object:

configuration.compress = False

Enable requests logging

If you want to enable requests logging, set the debug flag on your configuration object:

configuration.debug = True

Asyncio support

The library supports asynchronous operations when using AsyncApiClient for the transport. When that client is used, the API methods will then return coroutines that you can wait for.

To make async support available, you need to install the extra async qualifiers during installation: pip install datadog-api-client[async].

import asyncio

from datadog_api_client import Configuration, AsyncApiClient
from datadog_api_client.v1.api import dashboards_api

async def main():
    configuration = Configuration()
    async with AsyncApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
        api_instance = dashboards_api.DashboardsApi(api_client)
        dashbooards = await api_instance.list_dashboards()
        print(dashbooards)

asyncio.run(main())

Documentation for API Endpoints and Models

Documentation for API endpoints and models are available on readthedocs.

Documentation for Authorization

Authenticate with the API by providing your API and Application keys in the configuration:

configuration.api_key["apiKeyAuth"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"
configuration.api_key["appKeyAuth"] = "YOUR_APPLICATION_KEY"
