Context

Buildkite agents can export job output as OpenTelemetry log records and in Datadog we recently added OTel log exporting support! Datadog users currently need to combine generic exporter documentation with separate endpoint and CI Visibility guidance to understand the complete setup and correlation behaviour.

Summary

  • add a copyable Datadog OTLP/HTTP job log configuration to the agent tracing documentation
  • explain Log Management availability and optional CI Pipeline Visibility correlation
  • cross-link the Buildkite and Datadog setup documentation and update the page description

Hi @buildkite/docs. Would someone be able to review this when you have a chance? The corresponding Datadog documentation and OTLP job-log support are now live. Thanks!

Hello, @rodrigo-roca, thanks for this, and for getting the Datadog side published! We've reviewed the changes, and they line up with the Datadog OTLP logs intake and CI Visibility docs. We handle reviews and merges in our internal docs repository, so we've moved your changes there, keeping you credited as co-author. They'll appear on buildkite.com/docs once they're merged and deployed. We'll close this PR, but we really appreciate the contribution. 🙌

Kind regards,
Karen Sawrey
Senior Technical Writer at Buildkite
