 ## How to import time series data
 
-Time series data can be imported into VictoriaMetrics via any supported data ingestion protocol:
+VictoriaMetrics can discover and scrape metrics from Prometheus-compatible targets (aka "pull" protocol) -
+see [these docs](#how-to-scrape-prometheus-exporters-such-as-node-exporter).
+Additionally, VictoriaMetrics can accept metrics via the following popular data ingestion protocols (aka "push" protocols):
 
 * [Prometheus remote_write API](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#remote_write). See [these docs](#prometheus-setup) for details.
 * DataDog `submit metrics` API. See [these docs](#how-to-send-data-from-datadog-agent) for details.
