Blink

Supported OS Linux Windows Mac OS

Overview

Blink is a low-code/no-code (LCNC) platform that enables automated incident response, cloud-native operations, and security operations workflows. Blink transforms manual tasks into interactive automations backed by the security and reliability of a cloud-native platform. Every script or ticket becomes a fully-managed automation.

The user interface and automation library come with premade Datadog-based automations and use-cases. Blink helps you achieve better cloud efficiency and more competitive SLA’s, with fewer operational bottlenecks.

This out-of-the-box integration enables you to:

  • Trigger event-based Blink automations using Datadog incidents.
  • Create and update Datadog incidents automatically from within Blink.
  • View incidents or events from the Datadog Events Explorer in Blink.
  • Automatically enrich and remediate Datadog incidents using Blink automations.

For more information about Blink, see the Blink documentation.
