How do I list Datadog monitors?

Short answer: You can list datadog monitors in Datadog by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Datadog List Datadog Monitors action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about List Datadog Monitors.

What does the List Datadog Monitors action do in Datadog?
Returns every monitor in the org with status and filter tags. Useful for "what's firing right now" dashboards or "audit monitors that haven't alerted in 6 months for cleanup" maintenance workflows.
What inputs does List Datadog Monitors require?
List Datadog Monitors has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Datadog returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does List Datadog Monitors support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Datadog Monitors inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles Datadog's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
