# Data Streaming

The **Data Streaming** feature allows you to easily configure and stream [logs](/documentation/developer-guide/development-cycle/dashboards/pipeline-logs.md) and [completed executions ](/documentation/developer-guide/development-cycle/dashboards/completed-executions.md)data automatically within the Digibee Integration Platform to external tools of your choice.

{% hint style="info" %}
Currently, the Data Streaming feature is only compatible with Datadog and Splunk. Support will be extended to other tools in future updates.
{% endhint %}

## Benefits

* **Improved visibility**: Makes it easier to monitor data in real-time using your preferred tools.
* **Compliance and auditing:** Enables bulk log storage, daily exports, and extended retention for audit requirements.
* **Operational efficiency:** Avoids manual log downloads by automating data streaming to external platforms.

## Use cases for Data Streaming

The **Data Streaming** feature is very helpful if you need to:

* Stream data to monitoring tools for real-time visibility of system health and anomaly detection.
* Stream data to troubleshooting tools for live debugging and quick issue resolution.
* Stream data for long-term retention and auditing to meet regulatory requirements like General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
* Aggregate data from multi-cloud or hybrid environments into a single platform for visibility and analysis.
* Enable automated alerts on data anomalies to reduce incident detection and recovery times.

## Permissions

To create, edit, and delete Data Streaming configurations, the user must have the `data-streaming-manager` role. To learn more about roles and permissions on the Digibee Integration Platform, check out the [documentation](/documentation/developer-guide/platform-administration/administration/new-access-control/access-control-roles.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.digibee.com/documentation/developer-guide/platform-administration/settings/data-streaming.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
