Datadog (EU) MCP connector
Datadog (EU) connects monitors, logs, traces, incidents, and dashboards from Datadog's EU region to Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor through Elaichi, so each person asks questions in plain language inside their own Datadog access.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Datadog (EU) to Claude?
Connect Datadog (EU) in Elaichi first: pick the EU connector and sign in to your Datadog EU account in the browser as you normally would, there is no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. From then on Claude works with Datadog in EU as you.
Does Datadog (EU) work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Datadog (EU) is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Datadog in EU once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Datadog (EU) data?
It can tell you which monitors are firing, pull up an open incident, search logs and traces for a service, look at real user sessions, find hosts, and read dashboards and notebooks in Datadog (EU). It can also draft or edit a notebook, such as a postmortem, and check a monitor definition before you save it. Short, specific asks like error logs for checkout since 9am work better than long sentences, and everything runs inside your own Datadog EU account.
Does connecting Datadog (EU) give the AI access to every organization and log index?
No. The AI sees exactly what the person who signed in to Datadog (EU) can see, so Datadog's own roles and restriction queries still apply. Elaichi can narrow that further with toolboxes and restrictions, and it never widens access beyond what your Datadog EU role allows.
Can I stop an agent from changing or editing things in Datadog (EU)?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow searching logs and incidents in Datadog (EU) while blocking notebook creation or edits. A restricted action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, so no prompt can reach it in your Datadog EU account.
What happens to a Datadog (EU) connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding the person in Elaichi ends their access to Datadog (EU) at once, across every client. A shared Datadog EU connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Datadog (EU) once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client.
Does the Datadog (EU) MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Datadog (EU) is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.
Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Datadog (EU)?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Datadog (EU). Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Datadog (EU) call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Datadog (EU)?
Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Datadog (EU): one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
