Datadog is included in Archal’s environment catalog. Use it in a sandbox for observability REST API: metrics, logs, monitors, dashboards, SLOs, incidents, teams, users, and service definitions. Preview means the environment is included for testing, but its upstream coverage is incomplete. Verify the operations your test depends on.

​
Compatibility boundary

Local catalog validation: All five published samples passed. Checks cover the state contract, relationships, artifact hash, secret scan, and size limit.
Local catalog validation is not hosted proof. Archal checks current certification, reset, and isolation evidence before admitting new sandboxes. Use the authenticated environment catalog for live availability.
  • Queries and resource families are bounded to the deterministic domain simulator.

Curated starting states

List the five samples with archal sample list datadog. Each sample is a versioned starting state with a representative read, mutation, expected diff, reset expectation, and verified artifact hash.
Inspect one deterministic CPU monitor, then add a distinct memory monitor without unrelated telemetry.Sample ID: datadog.cpu-monitor-baseline.v1Category: minimalStarting state: 1 record across _datadogSimulator.monitors: 1Supported surface: Stateful metrics, monitors, events, incidents, dashboards, and modeled resources.Required capabilities: state.read, state.load, state.reset, rest.monitorsFirst read: GET /api/v1/monitor/20000001. Expected result: HTTP 200.Representative mutation: POST /api/v1/monitor. Expected result: HTTP 200, 201.Mutation input
Expected diff: changes include _datadogSimulator.monitors. Exact match required: no. Hosted promotion must observe every listed path after the provider-native mutation; dynamic provider ids and timestamps are excluded from exact matching.Expected reset: restores loaded sample.Known limits
  • Queries and resource families are bounded to the deterministic domain simulator.

Use custom state

Start from a sample when possible. For custom state, inspect the contract with archal environment describe datadog, then validate the file before creating a sandbox:
Loading state replaces the current collections and establishes a new reset baseline. See Starting state before replacing state in an existing sandbox.
