# Datadog Alert Integration

> Send Mezmo alerts to Datadog using the Datadog Metrics API by providing your API key and match and time-span criteria.

Mezmo's Datadog integration interacts with the [Datadog Metrics API](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/?lang=bash#post-timeseries-points).

Provide your Datadog API key and input criteria on the number of matches and time span before sending an alert to your Datadog instance:

After integrating Mezmo with Datadog, you can now view your metrics in Datadog's metric summary! The metric name will match the name of the view to which you attached an alert.
