If you "scraping" prometheus through federation endpoint - you need to 
provide query and this query allows you to limit scopes you requesting from 
prometheus:

You can play with queries using curl command:
curl -G --data-urlencode 'match[]={__name__!~""}' 'http://<prometheus 
instance>:<port>/prometheus/federate'

This example will query for all metrics with non-empty name, what can take 
too much time and probably fail by timeout, so you can start with any small 
metric name to see results.

You can also check github issue for other usage examples:
