Once connected, Traversal begins analyzing metrics, events, logs, traces, deployments, system knowledge, Slack context, and more. The more data sources you connect, the more accurately Traversal can reason about what’s happening in production.

​
Access model — read-only by design

Traversal only requires read-only API access to your systems and repositories. There are no agents to deploy and no write privileges to your data stores or code.For chat platforms — Slack and Microsoft Teams — Traversal uses messaging-surface permissions only: reading conversation context where the bot participates, and posting investigation results back. These permissions do not grant data-plane writes to your systems.

Traversal needs real-time access to your metrics, logs, and traces to understand what’s happening as it happens — not after the fact.
Start with telemetry — it’s the most important category. If you’re on Datadog, connect that first. Once telemetry is in place, add GitHub and productivity tools.
Traversal supports the following integrations:
Click any integration above for setup instructions, or select one in Traversal for a step-by-step walkthrough.
