datadog-ci adds ppdb-symbols upload for .NET MAUI

Introduced 2026-10-07 · score 0.98

HOW TO USE IT

When uploading .NET MAUI Portable PDBs for managed C# exception symbolication, set `DATADOG_API_KEY` in the environment or `apiKey` in `datadog-ci.json`. Run `datadog-ci ppdb-symbols upload <location> --debug-id-manifest <path>` with the build-time manifest from `dd-sdk-maui`.

WHY THIS HELPS

Upload Portable PDB symbols from a .NET MAUI build so managed C# exceptions can be symbolicated.

REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

• Version: v5.25.0
• `<location>` (required): One or more directories or file paths; directories are scanned recursively for `.pdb` files.
• `--debug-id-manifest <path>` (required): Path to manifest JSON (for example, `dd_debug_ids.json`) mapping assembly names to hex-encoded debug IDs.
• `DATADOG_API_KEY` / `apiKey` (required): API key used to authenticate requests; provide as environment variable or `datadog-ci.json` field. These are alternative ways to supply the key.
• `DD_SITE`: Datadog site for upload; defaults to `datadoghq.com`.
• Prerequisite: Set `DATADOG_API_KEY` or add it to `datadog-ci.json` as `apiKey`; the API key is required for authentication.
• Prerequisite: Use the build-time debug ID manifest generated by `dd-sdk-maui` to match PDB files to assembly debug IDs.
• A PDB without a matching manifest entry is skipped with a warning.
• An assembly name matching two manifest entries only by case is rejected.
• Backend acceptance of the `dotnet_portable_pdb` metadata type is tracked separately and is not part of this PR.
