# Datadog Automation via Rube MCP
Automate Datadog monitoring and observability operations through Composio's Datadog toolkit via Rube MCP.
## Prerequisites
- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
- Active Datadog connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `datadog`
- Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas
## Setup
**Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds
2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `datadog`
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Datadog authentication
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
## Core Workflows
### 1. Query and Explore Metrics
**When to use**: User wants to query metric data or list available metrics
**Tool sequence**:
1. `DATADOG_LIST_METRICS` - List available metric names [Optional]
2. `DATADOG_QUERY_METRICS` - Query metric time series data [Required]
**Key parameters**:
- `query`: Datadog metric query string (e.g., `avg:system.cpu.user{host:web01}`)
- `from`: Start timestamp (Unix epoch seconds)
- `to`: End timestamp (Unix epoch seconds)
- `q`: Search string for listing metrics
**Pitfalls**:
- Query syntax follows Datadog's metric query format: `aggregation:metric_name{tag_filters}`
- `from` and `to` are Unix epoch timestamps
