The Agent contains an embedded Python environment at /opt/datadog-agent/embedded/. Common binaries such as python and pip are contained within /opt/datadog-agent/embedded/bin/.

Python packages can be installed with the embedded pip:

sudo /opt/datadog-agent/embedded/bin/pip install <PACKAGE_NAME>

Custom Python packages can be installed using the Agent’s embedded Python using the following command in an elevated (run as admin) PowerShell command line:

For Agent versions >= 6.12:

& "$env:ProgramFiles\Datadog\Datadog Agent\embedded<PYTHON_MAJOR_VERSION>\python" -m pip install <PACKAGE_NAME>

For Agent versions <= 6.11:

& "$env:ProgramFiles\Datadog\Datadog Agent\embedded\python" -m pip install <PACKAGE_NAME>

Or the package can be added in the library zipped folder that can be found at

%ProgramFiles%\Datadog\Datadog Agent\files

then restart your Agent.
