The problem in that you can't use root mysql account for command like

... mysql -e "CR....

from the mentioned documentation, because in Plesk no root mysql user, but admin user should be used instead. So, for example, use command:

sudo mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` -e "CREATE USER 'datadog'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<UNIQUEPASSWORD>';"

instead of

sudo mysql -e "CREATE USER 'datadog'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<UNIQUEPASSWORD>';"

in the documentation.
