Moderation APIs

Overview

Moderation APIs allow you to integrate moderation capabilities into your product or application. You can use a combination of these APIs along with Stream’s Moderation Dashboard to prevent app users from posting harmful content on your platform. Additionally, you can build a custom dashboard using these APIs.

Let’s examine each of the moderation APIs provided by Stream.

Prerequisites

Moderation Check Endpoint

The Moderation Check Endpoint enables real-time content moderation by analyzing submitted content and providing actionable recommendations. This comprehensive API supports multiple content formats, including text messages, images, and video content.

The process follows these simple steps:

  1. Set up your moderation policy with defined rules and actions (see Policy Setup)
  2. Submit content for review along with your policy key
  3. The API analyzes the content using configured moderation engines and rules
  4. Receive an immediate recommendation based on the analysis

By integrating this endpoint into your application workflow, you can efficiently maintain content quality and ensure compliance with your platform’s standards while providing a safe environment for your users.

API Usage

In the context of the Moderation API, the term “entity” refers to a piece of content that you send for moderation. This can be text, an image, and/or a video.

await client.moderation.check(
  "entity_type",
  "entity_id",
  "entity_creator_id",
  {
    texts: ["this is bullshit", "f*ck you as***le"],
    images: ["example.com/test.jpg"],
  },
  "config_key",
  {
    force_sync: true,
  },
);

Request Params

keyrequiredtypedescription
entity_typetruestringThis is identifier for the type of content you are sending for moderation. This helps with categorizing content on dashboard. E.g., if you have multiple products then you can set unique entity_type for content coming from each product. It could be any string.
entity_idtruestringUnique identifier for entity
entity_creator_idtruestringUnique identifier for user who created this entity. Generally this is the user id of the app user.
moderation_payloadtrueobjectEntity or content to be moderated
config_keytruestringKey of the config to be used for moderation. Please check Config Setup API for details

Response

| key | type | description | | ------------------ | -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | status | “complete” | “partial” | Status of moderation. In case you have configured both synchronous and asynchronous (image moderation) moderations, then status will be “partial”. This is because async moderations are still running in background task. | | task_id | string | Id of the task running the async moderation. You can check the status of the task itself using GetTask endpoint. | | recommended_action | “flag”, “remove”, “keep” | Final result of moderation which suggest what action should be taken for moderated entity.

  • “flag” suggests that the content needs manual review either on Stream dashboard or custom dashboard you may have
  • “remove” suggests that this content should be removed from the platform. You will be able to access/review this content from Stream dashboard
  • “keep” suggests that this content is safe and doesn’t contain any harms
| | item | object | This is basically a json representation of the review queue item accessible on Stream dashboard. You can use this to compose your own dashboard UI. |

Upsert Config

We provide a separate API endpoint to enable or disable specific harm engines. Stream supports various moderation engines, both in-house and from subprocessors, such as toxicity detection, platform circumvention prevention, AI Text Engine, and AI Image Moderation Engine. We plan to introduce more in the future. Each engine processes content and provides relevant classifications. As a customer, you don’t need to handle each result individually—that would be overwhelming. Instead, we’ve simplified the process by allowing you to map these classifications to a few values representing “Recommended Actions”.

These recommended actions are handled automatically in Stream’s Chat and Activity Feeds products. For custom moderation, you’ll receive the final recommended action through the check endpoint (TODO: add link), allowing you to take appropriate action on the content.

API Usage

await client.moderation.upsertConfig({
  key: "unique_config_key",
  ai_text_config: {
    rules: [
	    {label: "SCAM", action: "flag"},
        {label: "SEXUAL_HARASSMENT", severity_rules [
            {severity: "low", action: "flag"},
            {severity: "medium", action: "flag"},
            {severity: "high", action: "remove"},
            {severity: "critical", action: "remove"}
        ]}
    ]
  },
  block_list_config: {
    rules: [
      {
        name: 'blocklistname',
        action: 'remove',
      },
    ],
  },
  automod_toxicity_config: {
    rules: [
		  { "label": "identity_attack", "threshold": 0.5, "action": "flag" },
		  { "label": "insult", "threshold": 0.5, "action": "remove" },
		  { "label": "obscene", "threshold": 0.5, "action": "flag" },
		  { "label": "sexual_explicit", "threshold": 0.5, "action": "flag" },
		  { "label": "threat", "threshold": 0.5, "action": "flag" }
		],
  },
  ai_image_config: {
    rules: [{ label: 'Non-Explicit Nudity', action: 'flag' }],
  },
  automod_platform_circumvention_config: {
	  rules: [{action: "remove", label:  "platform_circumvention", threshold: 0.5}]
  }
});

Request Parameters

KeyRequiredTypeDescription
keytruestringUnique identifier for the config. You’ll need to specify this key when sending content for moderation check.
ai_text_configfalseobjectConfiguration for the Bodyguard AI engine.
block_list_configfalseobjectConfiguration for the block list. This allows you to disallow specific words or phrases on your platform.
automod_toxicity_configfalseobjectConfiguration for Stream’s internal toxicity engine.
ai_image_configfalseobjectConfiguration for image moderation. Please refer todocsfor a list of all the harms.
automod_platform_circumvention_configfalseobjectConfiguration for Stream’s platform circumvention engine. It helps prevent users from moving to different platforms for communication.

For out-of-the-box moderation in our Chat and Activity Feeds products, we use specific conventions for the configuration key:

  • Config key for a specific chat channel: chat:messaging:channel_id
  • Config key for a channel type: chat:messaging
  • Config key for all channels of any type: chat
  • Config key for the Activity Feeds product: feeds:default

Get Config

API Usage

You can retrieve the config for specific key as following

await client.moderation.getConfig("config_key");

Flag Content

Flagging content marks it for review by moderators. Flagged items appear on the Stream dashboard, where moderators can take appropriate action.

await client.moderation.flag(
  "entity_type",
  "entity_id",
  "entity_creator_id",
  "reason for flag",
  {
    custom: {},
    moderation_payload: { text: ["this is shit"] },
    user_id: "user_id", // only for server side usage
  },
);

Flag a user

When a user/moderator flags a user, it ends up in “Users” review list (as shown in following screen

await client.moderation.flagUser("target_user_id", "spam");

// Internally this method simply calls the flag endpoint as following
// await client.moderation.flag(
//	"stream:user",
//	"target_user_id",
//	"",
//	"spam",
//)

Users Review Queue

Flag a message

await client.moderation.flagMessage("message_id", "spam");

// await client.moderation.flag(
//	"stream:chat:v1:message",
//	"message_id",
//	"",
//	"spam",
//)

Text Content Review Queue

Query Review Queue

This endpoint allows you to query the review queue. It supports a wide range of filters and sorting options, enabling you to build a dashboard that’s easy for moderators to use.

const filters = { entity_type: "some_entity_type" };
const sort = [{ field: "created_at", direction: -1 }];
const options = { next: null }; // cursor pagination

const { items, next } = await client.moderation.queryReviewQueue(
  filters,

Submit Action

This endpoint allows you to perform specific actions on review queue items or flagged content. It’s the underlying API used on Stream’s moderation dashboard when a moderator deletes a flagged message or unblocks a blocked message.

This endpoint serves multiple purposes:

  1. For Stream’s chat or activity feeds products: It enables you to delete messages or ban users from your custom moderation dashboard.
  2. For in-house products: You can inform Stream about actions taken on review queue items, ensuring these actions are reflected in Stream’s moderation dashboard.
await client.moderation.submitAction("action_type", "item_id");

Request Params

If you are using Stream’s chat or feeds product, we have some set of predefined actions which you can use. These actions are used on Stream dashboard when you press one of the buttons highlighted in following screenshot.

Ban a user

Bans the user entity or creator of flagged entity. You can globally ban the user or ban only for chat channel.

  ban: {
    reason: "spam",
    channel_ban_only: false, // default
  },
});

    mark_messages_deleted: false,
    delete_conversation_channels: false,
  },
});

Delete Feeds Reaction

await client.moderation.submitAction("delete_reaction", "item_id", {
  delete_reaction: {
    hard_delete: false, // default
  },
});

await client.moderation.submitAction("unban", "item_id", {
  unban: {
    channel_cid: "channel_cid", // to unban channel banned user
  },
});
