Update Datadog Integration to API v2.2+
German Martinez
Here's a concise feature request that frames the customer impact rather than just the implementation detail:
Update Datadog Integration to API v2.2+ (Support Service Catalog)
## Problem
Port's Datadog integration currently relies on an older version of the Datadog API. As customers begin investing more heavily in Datadog integrations, this is becoming a significant limitation—particularly for ingesting data from the Datadog Service Catalog, which depends on newer API capabilities.
## Customer Impact
* Blocks Service Catalog ingestion from Datadog.
* Prevents customers from leveraging newer Datadog platform capabilities.
* Forces workarounds or custom integrations for modern Datadog deployments.
* Makes it difficult to fully adopt Port as the engineering catalog when Datadog is a primary source of truth.
## Requested Enhancement
Upgrade the Datadog integration to use the current Datadog API (v2.2+), enabling support for Service Catalog ingestion and other modern API capabilities.
## Customer Context
A customer recently began implementing the Datadog integration and immediately encountered this limitation. Their observability engineering team is now involved, and this is expected to become a key discussion point as they expand their Datadog usage.
## Success Criteria
* Datadog integration supports the latest stable Datadog APIs.
* Service Catalog entities can be ingested into Port.
* Future Datadog capabilities can be adopted without requiring a major integration rewrite.
This version is likely to get more traction internally because it focuses on
customer value and business impact
, not just "please upgrade the API." It also avoids locking the engineering team into a specific API version while still making the need clear.
