Datadog-Azure function

The Datadog-Azure function is used to forward Azure logs to Datadog from new blob files added in a storage account. The function reads the file, splits lines on \n and sends each line as a log entry to Datadog.

Quick Start

The provided Node.js script must be deployed into your Azure Functions service. Follow the tutorial below to learn how to do so:

1. Create a new Blob triggered function

  • Expand your function application and click the + button next to Functions. If this is the first function in your function application, select Custom function. This displays the complete set of function templates.
  • In the search field type Blob and choose Blob Trigger.
  • Select the Javascript language in the right menu.
  • Enter a name for the function.
  • Select the path in the storage account where you want to read file from you want to pull logs from.
  • Add the wanted Storage account connection or create a new one if you haven't have one already.

2. Provide the code

3. (optional) Send logs to EU or to a proxy

Send logs to EU

Set the environment variable DD_SITE to datadoghq.eu and logs are automatically forwarded to your EU platform.

Parameters

  • API KEY:

There are 2 possibilities to set your Datadog's API key:

  1. Replace <DATADOG_API_KEY> in the code with your API Key value.
  2. Set the value through the DD_API_KEY environment variable
  • Custom Tags:

You have two options to add custom tags to your logs:

  • Manually by editing the function code: Replace the '' placeholder for the DD_TAGS variable by a comma separated list of tags
  • Automatically with the DD_TAGS environment variable

Learn more about Datadog tagging in our main Tagging documentation.
