Visualize Instabug App Health in Datadog

Easily monitor your app’s performance and stability directly within Datadog by using our prebuilt Instabug Blueprint. This guide walks you through setting up the integration via HTTP, allowing you to visualize app health metrics like crash-free sessions, frustration-free sessions, and more.

📌 Prerequisites

• A Datadog account with access to App Builder.
• An Instabug account with access to your project's App Health dashboard.
• Instabug API token and email (reach out to [email protected] to obtain these).

🛠️ Steps to Set Up the Integration

1. Navigate to App Builder

   From the left-hand navigation in Datadog, go to Actions > App Builder.

2. Select “Blueprints”

   Click on the Blueprints tab at the top to access available integrations.

3. Search for Instabug

   In the search bar, type Instabug and select the blueprint titled Explore Instabug Sessions.

4. Click “Set up your connection”

   Click the blueprint card to open the editor. On the left side, select New Connection.

5. Choose HTTP Connection

   Select HTTP Connection as the integration method.

6. Fill in Connection Details

   In the modal, enter the following:
   • Base URL: https://dashboard-api.instabug.com
   • Authentication Type: Token Auth
   • Add two token fields:
     • token → Instabug API token
     • email → Your registered Instabug email
   • Then under Request Headers, add:
     authorization: Token token="{{ token }}", email="{{ email }}"

Click Next, Confirm Access.

7. Set Access Permissions

   Choose who can access this connection (e.g., only you, the org, or a team), then click Create.

You should now see a success message indicating the connection was created.

✅ You’re Done!

Once the connection is active, Datadog will begin visualizing live Instabug metrics like:

• Crash-free sessions
• Frustration-free sessions
• Session breakdowns over time

You can now fully monitor app health using Datadog’s native dashboards powered by Instabug data.
