Is the configuration of external secrets via SECRET[backend_aws_secrets_manager.*] universally supported?

Hi,

Trying to use the external secrets placeholder/backend with little luck in the datadog_metrics sink. The secrets retrieval works great for our Splunk sink but for 'datadog_metrics' we only get the 403 fiobidden. If I replace SECRET[backend_aws_secrets_manager.datadog_api_key] with the value stored in AWS secrets manager it works fine.

type: datadog_metrics
inputs:
  - internal_metrics
default_api_key: "SECRET[backend_aws_secrets_manager.datadog_api_key]"
default_namespace: vector-aggregator-service

Before I burn much more time on this thought I would check that parsing the SECRET[*.*] was actually supported in the datadog_metrics sink.

Thanks

It's supported everywhere as it is actually handled before configuration parsing by simple string templating.
