# Install Prometheus provider

To install the Prometheus provider, create a YAML file (`provider.yml` in this example) with the definition of the provider:

```yaml
name: Prometheus
description: Telemetry Provider that enables to import of metrics from Prometheus
dockerImage: 485790562880.dkr.ecr.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/telemetry-providers/prometheus-provider:3.5.0
```

Then you can install the provider using the Akamas CLI:

```bash
akamas install telemetry-provider provider.yml
```

The installed provider is shared with all users of your Akamas installation and can monitor many different systems, by configuring appropriate telemetry provider instances.
