## Enable Integration

To seamlessly integrate Stream metrics with your Datadog account, follow these two essential steps. This feature is included with Stream’s Enterprise pricing plans.

1. Identify your Datadog account's DD_SITE and DD_API_KEY:

2. Request the Stream team to enable this feature by [contacting support](https://getstream.io/contact/support/)

Navigate to your [Stream Dashboard](https://dashboard.getstream.io/) and follow these instructions:

1. Go to the left-side menu and select "Chat Messaging" -> "External Integration."
