This automation scenario allows you to connect Twilio and Datadog
It can be build using Pipedream, a no-code workflow automation tool. Pipedream allows you to create automated scripts using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Twilio and Datadog can also be integrated using automation tools other than pipedream:
When this trigger fires in Twilio
Then this action happens in Datadog
This guide contains information on how to set up an automatic workflow that allows to Post Metric Data with Datadog API on New Incoming SMS (Instant) from Twilio API.
Part I
First, we need to connect Twilio and Datadog to Pipedream.
Create Pipedream account.
Create Pipedream account if you don't have one.
Connect Twilio to Pipedream.
Give Pipedream access to your Twilio account, using Twilio credentials.
Connect Datadog to Pipedream.
Give Pipedream access to your Datadog account, using Datadog credentials.
Part II
Next, we need to create a workflow automation scenario using graphical no-code web interface of Pipedream.
Set up a Trigger action for Twilio
Choose the following trigger: New Incoming SMS (Instant) (null).
Then set up an Action for Datadog
Choose this action: Post Metric Data (null).
Part III
Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.
Customize data flow
Configure the data that is exchanged between Twilio and Datadog.
Test the workflow and turn it on for production use
Test your scenario and publish to production. Now you have an automatic workflow, that will Post Metric Data with Datadog API on New Incoming SMS (Instant) from Twilio API!
New incoming sms (instant)
Triggered when an SMS is sent to your Twilio number.
Triggered when a new recording is available on your account.
Triggered when a call is finished on your Twilio number.
Triggered when a new transcription is available on your account.
Triggered when you add a new phone number.
Post metric data
This covers the data that you want to send to Datadog
Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.
The metrics end-point allows you to post time-series data that can be graphed on Datadog’s dashboards. The limit for payloads is 3.2 megabytes (3200000).
Post time-series data points for the Datadog matrix.
Post a check run alert for the monitoring group.
