Data source for query value about terraform-provider-datadog

[skarimo]

Hello, could you provide an example, is query referring to a value of a metric?

Yes sorry I mean metric instead of query, I was trying to do something like(fake example but same idea):

locals {
critical_threshold = sum:aws.kafka.messages_in_per_sec{topic:${var.topic},cluster_name:${var.kafka_cluster},region:${var.region},consumer_group:${var.consumer_group}}
}
resource "datadog_monitor" "kafka_topic_high_offset_lag_warning" {
  # Alert if the kafka topic has more messages than the critical value
  name  = "${var.service}: Offset lag is above threshold for ${var.topic_name}"
  type  = "metric alert"
  query = "avg(last_30m): sum:aws.kafka.offset_lag{topic:${var.topic_name},cluster_name:${var.kafka_cluster},region:${var.region},consumer_group:${var.consumer_group}} >= ${local.critical_threshold}"
}

but kept getting an error because the threshold was not a constant, I was wondering if it would be possible to have a datasource that would grab the current value of a metric at the time of running a plan so that it could be used as a constant in the threshold of our monitor
