If your Datadog logs show the incorrect Status, then you should set up a log status remapper.

Go to Logs > Pipelines > Add a new pipeline.

Set up an optional Filter for your service like:

service:api.example.com

If your Datadog log’s Event Attributes looks like:

{
  "log_level_name": "ERROR"
}

Then all you need to do is click Add Processor, select Status Remapper, and update Set status attribute(s) to:

log_level_name

If your Datadog log’s Event Attributes looks like:

{
  "log_level_value": 400
}

Then click Add Processor, select Category Processor, and update Set target category attribute:

log_level_mapping

Add the entries to map your category attributes:

NAME	MATCHING QUERY
Error	@log_level_value:400
Warning	@log_level_value:300
Info	@log_level_value:200

Then click Add Processor, select Status Remapper, and update Set status attribute(s) to:

log_level_mapping

Now your Datadog log statuses should be mapped correctly!
