# PutAnomalyDetector
Creates an anomaly detection model for a CloudWatch metric. You can use the model to display a band of expected normal values when the metric is graphed.
If you have enabled unified cross-account observability, and this account is a monitoring account, the metric can be in the same account or a source account. You can specify the account ID in the object you specify in the `SingleMetricAnomalyDetector` parameter.
For more information, see [CloudWatch Anomaly Detection](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/CloudWatch_Anomaly_Detection.html).
## Request Parameters
** Configuration **
The configuration specifies details about how the anomaly detection model is to be trained, including time ranges to exclude when training and updating the model. You can specify as many as 10 time ranges.
The configuration can also include the time zone to use for the metric.
Type: [AnomalyDetectorConfiguration](API_AnomalyDetectorConfiguration.md) object
Required: No
** Dimensions **
*This parameter has been deprecated.*
The metric dimensions to create the anomaly detection model for.
Type: Array of [Dimension](API_Dimension.md) objects
Array Members: Maximum number of 30 items.
Required: No
** MetricCharacteristics **
Use this object to include parameters to provide information about your metric to CloudWatch to help it build more accurate anomaly detection models. Currently, it includes the `PeriodicSpikes` parameter.
Type: [MetricCharacteristics](API_MetricCharacteristics.md) object
Required: No
** MetricMathAnomalyDetector **
The metric math anomaly detector to be created.
When using `MetricMathAnomalyDetector`, you cannot include the following parameters in the same operation:
+ `Dimensions`
+ `MetricName`
+ `Namespace`
+ `Stat`
+ the `SingleMetricAnomalyDetector` parameters of `PutAnomalyDetectorInput`
Instead, specify the metric math anomaly detector attributes as part of the property `MetricMathAnomalyDetector`.
Type: [MetricMathAnomalyDetector](API_MetricMathAnomalyDetector.md) object
Required: No
** MetricName **
*This parameter has been deprecated.*
The name of the metric to create the anomaly detection model for.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.
Required: No
** Namespace **
*This parameter has been deprecated.*
The namespace of the metric to create the anomaly detection model for.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 255.
Pattern: `[^:].*`
Required: No
** SingleMetricAnomalyDetector **
A single metric anomaly detector to be created.
When using `SingleMetricAnomalyDetector`, you cannot include the following parameters in the same operation:
+ `Dimensions`
+ `MetricName`
+ `Namespace`
+ `Stat`
+ the `MetricMathAnomalyDetector` parameters of `PutAnomalyDetectorInput`
Instead, specify the single metric anomaly detector attributes as part of the property `SingleMetricAnomalyDetector`.
Type: [SingleMetricAnomalyDetector](API_SingleMetricAnomalyDetector.md) object
Required: No
** Stat **
*This parameter has been deprecated.*
The statistic to use for the metric and the anomaly detection model.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 50.
Pattern: `(SampleCount|Average|Sum|Minimum|Maximum|IQM|(p|tc|tm|ts|wm)(\d{1,2}(\.\d{0,10})?|100)|[ou]\d+(\.\d*)?)(_E|_L|_H)?|(TM|TC|TS|WM)\(((((\d{1,2})(\.\d{0,10})?|100(\.0{0,10})?)%)?:((\d{1,2})(\.\d{0,10})?|100(\.0{0,10})?)%|((\d{1,2})(\.\d{0,10})?|100(\.0{0,10})?)%:(((\d{1,2})(\.\d{0,10})?|100(\.0{0,10})?)%)?)\)|(TM|TC|TS|WM|PR)\(((\d+(\.\d{0,10})?|(\d+(\.\d{0,10})?[Ee][+-]?\d+)):((\d+(\.\d{0,10})?|(\d+(\.\d{0,10})?[Ee][+-]?\d+)))?|((\d+(\.\d{0,10})?|(\d+(\.\d{0,10})?[Ee][+-]?\d+)))?:(\d+(\.\d{0,10})?|(\d+(\.\d{0,10})?[Ee][+-]?\d+)))\)`
Required: No
