Datadog
Works with: Datadog Logs on every Datadog site: US1, US3, US5, EU1, UK1, AP1, AP2 and US1-FED.
1. Create an API key
Section titled “1. Create an API key”In Datadog: Organisation Settings → API Keys → New Key, name it SafeHanded, and copy it. It must be an API key, not an application key.
2. Connect in SafeHanded
Section titled “2. Connect in SafeHanded”Settings → Integrations → Connect → Datadog: pick your site (the domain in your Datadog
address bar: app.datadoghq.eu is EU1, uk1.datadoghq.com is UK1), paste the API key and choose a
format. Save, then Send test event.
Start from defaults to New events only, because Datadog drops logs older than 18 hours. History older than that can be exported from the audit log.
3. Find the events
Section titled “3. Find the events”Logs → Search for source:safehanded. Each log has:
service:safehanded,host:safehanded, and tagsorg_id,eventandlevel;- a
statusfrom the level (info, warn, error, or critical for security events); - a one-line message such as
revealed by Jane Smith; - the full record under the
safehandedattribute, e.g.@safehanded.request_id.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”- Rejected the credentials (HTTP 403): the key is wrong, revoked, or from a different site than the one selected.
- Events don’t appear: check the time range. Each log carries the time it happened in SafeHanded.
