 Datadog Exporter
 ================
 
+Deprecated
+------------
+This exporter has been deprecated. To export your OTLP traces from OpenTelemetry SDK directly to Datadog Agent, please refer to `OTLP Ingest in Datadog Agent <https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing/setup_overview/open_standards/#otlp-ingest-in-datadog-agent>`_ .

 These examples show how to use OpenTelemetry to send tracing data to Datadog.
