SIEM integrations are used to perform analysis of any SIEM generated alerts, and/or to use generated data as part of investigation analysis. {% endhint %} The Dropzone platform integrates with the [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com/) security SIEM. Many customers ingest other alert sources into DataDog (e.g. IDPs) and integrate Dropzone into DataDog rather than the source systems. ## Create an API Key and Application Key Datadog requires both an API Key and an Application Key to enable. To obtain an API Key, do the following: * In the bottom left hand corner of your Datadog Dashboard, click on your organization icon * Navigate to Organization Settings > API Keys

* Click "New Key"

* Name your token something memorable, such as "dropzone.ai," then click "Create Key"

* Copy the key generated for use later in the Dropzone UI where it is called "API Key," then click "Finish"

To obtain an Application Key, do the following: * In the bottom left hand corner of your Datadog Dashboard, click on your organization icon * Navigate to Organization Settings > Application Keys

* Click "New Key"

* Name the key something memorable, such as "dropzone.ai," then click "Create Key"

* In the "Scope" section, select "Edit"

* Assign the key the following scopes, then click "Save": * logs\_read\_data * security\_monitoring\_signals\_read

* Copy the key generated for use later in the Dropzone UI where it is called "Application Key," then click "Finish"
