Hey @lognarly look good! Feel free to hit the squash and merge button once all those checks pass! |
How do we get those other checks to run? Seems they are stuck? |
…able nomenclature
|
@git-thuerk-done Just checking in once more here :) |
|
Hi @lognarly sorry for the delay! It seems those checks didn't run because it looks like you created this PR off a fork rather than off the cloned docs repo itself! I just approved those and will merge shortly :) |
|
Hi @lognarly Thank you for your contribution, and my apologies here but it seems we cannot merge a PR that was created from a fork, so you can either clone the repo locally and make your changes directly to this
|
|
@git-thuerk-done The doc here mentions to fork the master branch, so perhaps this needs to be updated with new guidelines? |
|
Also fwiw, this is how I've submitted PRs in the past as well. I went to go do what you mentioned from the UI as well, and it still mentions that its going to create a fork at the end of the day, so I think I end up in the same predicament? |
|
Ah interesting! Sorry for the confusion, I wonder if something else then was going on with this branch as certainly the required checks weren't passing. If you don't mind putting up a new PR we'll be sure to get your updated merged in :) |

What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

Merge readiness:
For Datadog employees:
Your branch name MUST follow the
<name>/<description>convention and include the forward slash (/). Without this format, your pull request will not pass CI, the GitLab pipeline will not run, and you won't get a branch preview. Getting a branch preview makes it easier for us to check any issues with your PR, such as broken links.If your branch doesn't follow this format, rename it or create a new branch and PR.
[6/5/2025] Merge queue has been disabled on the documentation repo. If you have write access to the repo, the PR has been reviewed by a Documentation team member, and all of the required checks have passed, you can use the Squash and Merge button to merge the PR. If you don't have write access, or you need help, reach out in the #documentation channel in Slack.
