CI/CD

Use this when the user wants to deploy a Datadog Apps project from GitHub Actions.

GitHub Actions

Use DataDog/apps-github-action to build and upload the app on pushes to the deployment branch. Keep app-directory aligned with the app's path in the repository.

        with:
          datadog-api-key: ${{ secrets.DATADOG_API_KEY }}
          datadog-app-key: ${{ secrets.DATADOG_APP_KEY }}
          app-directory: .

Store DATADOG_API_KEY and DATADOG_APP_KEY as encrypted secrets in the repository or organization settings.

Site Configuration

For non-US1 organizations, configure the Datadog site in vite.config.ts. The upload action reads app configuration during build, so keep CI and local configuration aligned.
