Create a datadog user in MySQL and grant it permission to run metric queries on your behalf. Copy Datadog’s conf.d/mysql.yaml.example template to conf.d/mysql.yaml to create a configuration file for Datadog.

/etc/datadog-agent/conf.d/mysql.d/conf.yaml.example The file results in an error

Add the login credentials for your newly created datadog user to conf.d/mysql.yaml. Restart the Agent.

mkdir conf.d/python.d # Create a Python config directory under conf.d vi

Should be

mkdir conf.d/python.d # Create a Python config directory under conf.d 
vi conf.d/python.d/conf.yaml # Create and open the config file

'Simple' has a number of requirements and likely should link to docs instead.

Formatting of Python is incorrect

I had an issue where i had python set up on a non-root user account that didn't have access to ddtrace-run.

Using the payload/widget information outlined in https://docs.datadoghq.com/graphing/dashboards/widgets/#timeseries the application gets

["400", {"errors"=>["The 'definition' parameter is required for all graphs"]}]

[osowskit]

Documentation for https://docs.datadoghq.com/graphing/dashboards/widgets/#timeseries should indicate that it will also have a field definition that can be obtained from an existing Dashboard (JSON).
