Migrating the package from development to production

To migrate your package from development to production, complete the steps below. 

• Submit a request to Oomnitza Support to enable the migration from the development instance
• Ensure that the development and the production instances are identical
• Create an API key for the migration in your production instance
• Add the production instance and the credential name as global settings in the development instance
• Ensure that the development and production instances have the same version
• Disable configuration changes in the production  instance

Refer to Planning the migration for detailed steps.

Performing the migration

To perform the migration from development to production, complete the following steps:

1. In the development instance, click Configuration > Migrations > Migrate.
2. Click PERFORM MIGRATION.
3. As migration type, select Package.
4. Select the package.
5. Click NEXT and then click MIGRATE.

Tip
If your migration fails due to missing package contents, such as a data model field or saved search, migrate the object as a standalone object and then attempt the migration again. 

Configuring the package

Find your package in Configuration > Migrations > Packages and click View in the Migrations page to update the following details:

Credentials 

Update the credentials for Datadog by entering your API Key. 

For information on how to retrieve your credentials and add them to Oomnitza, refer to Creating an extended integration for Datadog users

Global Setting

Edit the global setting DataDog.Application_Key and enter the value that you use for your instance. This is the application key that you created via Organization Settings > Application Keys in Datadog. This application key is different from the authentication API key.

Integration

In the Integration details section, you might want to change the value selected for Integration preferences.
