No UDP output traffic from App Platform on port 8125

Posted on June 28, 2024

Hi, We have a Datadog Agent running on a Droplet a specific Ip Address. We need that agent to sent StatSd metrics and traces to Datadog. Not only to forward logs. If I am not wrong, the forward logs feature from DigitalOcean does not allow that. For metrics the Statsd is suppose to hit the Droplet by UDP on port 8125. Looks like that is not working from any of our App Platform deployment. Is it possible that the UDP output for App Platforms is blocked? When hitting the Droplet from a local setup its working. Also we have the exact deployment on Railway with the exact ENV variable and that Railway setup is able to send the metrics to the droplet. For example, running the command: echo “test.metric:1|c” | nc -u -w0 DROPLET_IP 8125 From a local computer or SSH to a Railway deplayment, the metric will get through. But not from an App Platform console.

Thanks

Heya,

I think that question would be better suited to DigitalOcean’s support.

If you have contacted them already, would you be kind enough to provide me with the ticket number from when you contacted our support team so that I can get this followed up for you?

Alternatively, you can contact them now and provide me with the ticket number after to speed up things.

Hope that helps! - KFSys.
