  1. Create a Datadog integration in Integrations (API key, application key, region).
  2. In Costory, go to Metrics > Import new metrics datasource > Datadog.
  3. Select the Datadog configuration.
  4. Provide a metric query with a rollup (example):
    • avg:system.cpu.user{*} by {host}.rollup(avg, daily, 'UTC')
