How to connect Datadog to Twilio

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active Datadog account with repository access
  • An active Twilio account with permission to install apps
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate Datadog

Click "Add Connection" and select Datadog from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Datadog's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

3

Authenticate Twilio

Same process for Twilio. Click "Add Connection," select Twilio, and authorize access. Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new commit pushed in datadog or new message received in twilio. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: send message in twilio. Map the data fields between Datadog and Twilio so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Datadog and Twilio. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about connecting Datadog and Twilio.

How do I connect Datadog to Twilio?

Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Datadog and Twilio via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing developer tools events to communication actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between Datadog and Twilio?

You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Datadog events to Twilio actions, trigger Twilio updates when Datadog data changes, create Twilio records from Datadog events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.

Is the Datadog and Twilio integration free?

Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Datadog-to-Twilio workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my Datadog data secure when connected to Twilio?

Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Datadog or Twilio passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your developer tools data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between Datadog and Twilio?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Datadog or Twilio. For example, create a workflow where Datadog events update Twilio, and a separate one where Twilio changes sync back to Datadog. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect Datadog and Twilio?

No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Datadog and Twilio, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
