How to monitor Kafka DLQ with datadog?

I have a java spring boot app with kafka and want to monitor my DLQs with datadog. I need some kind of alerting (email) when a new message enters the DLQ topic. Using datadog as monitoring agent. I have found this guide from datadog but there is no specific part about alerting on a topic.

I have the metrics of kafka send to datadog, but don't know how I can monitor a topic, and set up alerting after that.

I try for example avg:kafka.net.bytes_out.rate{topic:kafkatest}

but the {topic:kafkatest} doesn't seem to work

I used this tool to monitor kafka. in the topic level dashboard, it shows the offset for each topic: https://zoomphant.github.io/docs/manual/99_plugins/kafka/#topic-dashboard use the left top to create alarm to send alert to email/slack etc. enter image description here
