Works with AI assistants
Use Datadog: its Datadog Existing API lets you test an existing security detection rule in a single step (POST /api/v2/security_monitoring/rules/{rule_id}/test). Datadog also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.
- Can I test a detection rule I already saved against sample payloads?
- How do I check whether an existing rule would fire on given data?
Say it to your AI assistant
- Test existing security rule {rule_id} against {ruleQueryPayloads}.
- Run a test of saved detection rule {rule_id}.
For your developer
