The [Prometheus custom resource](https://github.com/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator/blob/main/Documentation/getting-started/design.md#prometheus) tells Prometheus which ServiceMonitors or PodMonitors it should use to find out where to scrape metrics from.

When it observes that they are created or updated, it calls the Prometheus API to update the scrape configuration in the Prometheus custom resource and keep it in sync with the scrape configuration in the ServiceMonitors or PodMonitors. This scrape configuration tells Prometheus which endpoints to scrape metrics from and how it will label the metrics from those endpoints.
