Datadog integration is available for admins of organizations using Password Management or Credential Protection.
With our Datadog integration, you can send your Dashlane Activity Logs to Datadog automatically. Datadog is a monitoring and observability platform that lets you collect and visualize data from across your stack in one place. Once your logs are in Datadog, you can build dashboards, search and filter events, and set up monitors that alert you when specific events occur.
With Password Management, you can track how your team members use Dashlane. Events include new devices added, login sharing, invitations to your plan, and admin policy changes. You can set up monitors for specific events, like when someone shares a login with someone outside the organization.
With Credential Protection, you get everything listed above, plus credential risk events: weak and compromised credential usage and phishing incidents detected in the browser. This lets your security team detect credential threats as they happen and correlate them with signals from your other tools in Datadog.
Set up the Datadog integration
Prerequisites
For Dashlane:
- Admins of organizations using Password Management or Credential Protection
- Admin Console access
For Datadog:
- Datadog account with API access
- Ability to create and view API keys
- Access to the Logs product
Process overview
Step 1: Get your Datadog API key & intake host
Step 1.1: Get Datadog API key
-
Log in to Datadog:
https://app.datadoghq.com/ -
Go to: Organization Settings → API Keys
-
Copy an existing key OR create a new one
- Select New Key, give it a name like Dashlane logs, and select Create Key
- Copy the API key, which will look like this:
d08f46b9300e4aa5e6ac3b5a2ef11a71
You’ll use this as DATADOG_API_KEY.
Step 1.2: Determine Datadog Logs Intake Host
Match your Datadog site to the correct Logs intake host:
Datadog Site |
Logs Intake Host |
app.datadoghq.com (US1) |
http-intake.logs.datadoghq.com |
us3.datadoghq.com |
http-intake.logs.us3.datadoghq.com |
us5.datadoghq.com |
http-intake.logs.us5.datadoghq.com |
app.datadoghq.eu (EU) |
http-intake.logs.datadoghq.eu |
Step 2: Set up event forwarding in Dashlane
- Log in to your Dashlane Admin Console.
- Go to the integrations or events reporting section.
- Select Datadog as your event destination.
- Enter the Datadog endpoint URL and bearer token in the corresponding fields.
-
Before saving, we recommend selecting the Enable OCSF mapping for Datadog beta option to immediately standardize logs in Datadog, without having to manually map fields.
-
- Select Save to enable the connection.
Step 3: Test the connection
Verify in Datadog:
- Generate a test event in Dashlane, such as a new device login or an admin action.
- Open Datadog
- Go to Logs and then Search Logs:
service:dashlane-audit-logs - You should see incoming activity log events.
After setting up your integration, you can use Datadog to track the events listed in the Activity Log in your Dashlane Admin Console.
Note: Your Datadog integration won't log any previous events. Only new events will be tracked after the setup.
