After the server has been configured to publish its metrics, you can configure Prometheus to consume them.

The basic process is to update the server's prometheus.yml file to add a job element to the scrape_configs section for the server from which the metrics should be retrieved, as in the following example:

- job_name: "ds.example.com:8443"
  metrics_path: "/metrics"
  scheme: "https"

  tls_config:
    ca_file: ds.example.com-ca-certificate.pem

  static_configs:
    - targets: ["ds.example.com:8443"]

See the Prometheus documentation for complete details.
