<!--
There are 4 sources available to read data into VM Anomaly Detection from: VictoriaMetrics, (ND)JSON file, QueryRange, or CSV file. Depending on the data source, different parameters should be specified in the config file in the `reader` section.
-->
VictoriaMetrics Anomaly Detection (`vmanomaly`) primarily uses [VmReader](#vm-reader) to ingest data. This reader focuses on fetching time-series data directly from VictoriaMetrics with the help of powerful [MetricsQL](../../MetricsQL.md) expressions for aggregating, filtering and grouping your data, ensuring seamless integration and efficient data handling.
Future updates will introduce additional readers, expanding the range of data sources `vmanomaly` can work with.
