Submitting Text Moderation Job

Last updated: 2022-08-09 15:53:42

    Feature Description

    This API (POST text auditing) is used to submit a text moderation job. The text moderation feature is async. You can submit a job to moderate your text files, and then use the DescribeAuditingTextJob API as described in Querying Text Moderation Job Result or the text auditing callback API as described in Text Moderation Callback Content to query the moderation results.

    The API can:

    Note:

    • Moderate text files stored in COS.
    • Directly moderate Base64-encoded plain text information.
    • Supported text moderation methods include:
      • Pass in text content for moderation (only for UTF-8 encoding).
      • Moderate text files stored in COS (only for UTF-8 and GBK encodings).
      • Pass in text file URLs for moderation (only for UTF-8 and GBK encodings).
    • Automatically detect text files and recognize non-compliant content that may be offensive, unsafe, or inappropriate based on the deep learning technology.
    • Get the detection results by setting the callback address Callback or calling the DescribeAuditingTextJob API as described in Querying Text Moderation Job Result.
    • Recognize various non-compliant scenes, including pornographic, illegal, and adverting information.
    • Customize moderation policies based on different business scenarios.

    Billing Description

    • Each moderation scene is billed separately. For example, if you choose to moderate two scenes involving pornography and advertising, then one text file will be moderated and billed twice.
    • Calling the API will incur text moderation fees and COS read request fees as described in Request Fees.
    • If the text files are stored in COS STANDARD_IA storage class, calling the moderation API will incur STANDARD_IA data retrieval fees as described in Data Retrieval Fees.
    • Text moderation is not supported for objects stored in the ARCHIVE or DEEP ARCHIVE storage classes. To moderate these objects, you first need to restore them as instructed in POST Object restore.

    Restrictions

    • Text content size: When the content to be moderated is plain text, it needs to be Base64-encoded first. The length of the original text before encoding cannot exceed 10,000 UTF-8 characters.
    • Text file size: When the input content is a text file, the file size cannot exceed 1 MB.
    • Language: Currently, Chinese, English, and Arabic numerals can be detected.
