# AWS::APS::AnomalyDetector
<a name="aws-resource-aps-anomalydetector"></a>

Anomaly detection uses the Random Cut Forest algorithm for time-series analysis. The anomaly detector analyzes Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus metrics to identify unusual patterns and behaviors.

## Return values
<a name="aws-resource-aps-anomalydetector-return-values"></a>

### Ref
<a name="aws-resource-aps-anomalydetector-return-values-ref"></a>

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic `Ref` function, `Ref` returns the resource name. For example:

 `{ "Ref": "Id" }` 

For more information about using the `Ref` function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html).

### Fn::GetAtt
<a name="aws-resource-aps-anomalydetector-return-values-fn--getatt"></a>

The `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

For more information about using the `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html).

#### 
<a name="aws-resource-aps-anomalydetector-return-values-fn--getatt-fn--getatt"></a>
