## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Datadog?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Datadog on its own?

Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes is shown as a plan and requires approval by default, including the 6 actions classified as destructive. Administrators configure that per tool.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Datadog — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
