Azure AI Content Safety client library for Python
Azure AI Content Safety detects harmful user-generated and AI-generated content in applications and services. Content Safety includes text and image APIs that allow you to detect material that is harmful:

Text Analysis API: Scans text for sexual content, violence, hate, and self-harm with multi-severity levels.
Image Analysis API: Scans images for sexual content, violence, hate, and self-harm with multi-severity levels.
Text Blocklist Management APIs: The default AI classifiers are sufficient for most content safety needs; however, you might need to screen for terms that are specific to your use case. You can create blocklists of terms to use with the Text API.

Documentation
Various documentation is available to help you get started

Product documentation

Getting started
Prerequisites

Python 3.7 or later is required to use this package.
You need an Azure subscription to use this package.
An Azure AI Content Safety resource, if no existing resource, you could create a new one.

Install the package
pip install azure-ai-contentsafety

Authenticate the client
Get the endpoint
You can find the endpoint for your Azure AI Content Safety service resource using the Azure Portal or Azure CLI:
# Get the endpoint for the Azure AI Content Safety service resource
az cognitiveservices account show --name "resource-name" --resource-group "resource-group-name" --query "properties.endpoint"

Create a ContentSafetyClient/BlocklistClient with API key
To use an API key as the credential parameter.


Step 1: Get the API key.
The API key can be found in the Azure Portal or by running the following Azure CLI command:
az cognitiveservices account keys list --name "<resource-name>" --resource-group "<resource-group-name>"



Step 2: Pass the key as a string into an instance of AzureKeyCredential.
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.ai.contentsafety import ContentSafetyClient, BlocklistClient

endpoint = "https://<my-custom-subdomain>.cognitiveservices.azure.com/"
credential = AzureKeyCredential("<api_key>")
content_safety_client = ContentSafetyClient(endpoint, credential)
blocklist_client = BlocklistClient(endpoint, credential)



Create a ContentSafetyClient/BlocklistClient with Microsoft Entra ID token credential


Step 1: Enable Microsoft Entra ID for your resource.
Please refer to this document Authenticate with Microsoft Entra ID for the steps to enable Microsoft Entra ID for your resource.
The main steps are:

Create resource with a custom subdomain.
Create Service Principal and assign Cognitive Services User role to it.



Step 2: Set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the Microsoft Entra application as environment variables: AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET.
DefaultAzureCredential will use the values from these environment variables.
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.ai.contentsafety import ContentSafetyClient, BlocklistClient

endpoint = "https://<my-custom-subdomain>.cognitiveservices.azure.com/"
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
content_safety_client = ContentSafetyClient(endpoint, credential)
blocklist_client = BlocklistClient(endpoint, credential)



Key concepts
Available features
There are different types of analysis available from this service. The following table describes the currently available APIs.



Feature
Description




Text Analysis API
Scans text for sexual content, violence, hate, and self-harm with multi-severity levels.


Image Analysis API
Scans images for sexual content, violence, hate, and self-harm with multi-severity levels.


Text Blocklist Management APIs
The default AI classifiers are sufficient for most content safety needs. However, you might need to screen for terms that are specific to your use case. You can create blocklists of terms to use with the Text API.



Harm categories
Content Safety recognizes four distinct categories of objectionable content.



Category
Description




Hate
Hate and fairness-related harms refer to any content that attacks or uses pejorative or discriminatory language with reference to a person or identity group based on certain differentiating attributes of these groups including but not limited to race, ethnicity, nationality, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, religion, immigration status, ability status, personal appearance, and body size.


Sexual
Sexual describes language related to anatomical organs and genitals, romantic relationships, acts portrayed in erotic or affectionate terms, pregnancy, physical sexual acts, including those portrayed as an assault or a forced sexual violent act against one's will, prostitution, pornography, and abuse.


Violence
Violence describes language related to physical actions intended to hurt, injure, damage, or kill someone or something; describes weapons, guns and related entities, such as manufacturers, associations, legislation, and so on.


Self-harm
Self-harm describes language related to physical actions intended to purposely hurt, injure, damage one's body or kill oneself.



Classification can be multi-labeled. For example, when a text sample goes through the text moderation model, it could be classified as both Sexual content and Violence.
Severity levels
Every harm category the service applies also comes with a severity level rating. The severity level is meant to indicate the severity of the consequences of showing the flagged content.
Text: The current version of the text model supports the full 0-7 severity scale. By default, the response will output 4 values: 0, 2, 4, and 6. Each two adjacent levels are mapped to a single level. Users could use "outputType" in request and set it as "EightSeverityLevels" to get 8 values in output: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7. You can refer text content severity levels definitions for details.

[0,1] -> 0
[2,3] -> 2
[4,5] -> 4
[6,7] -> 6

Image: The current version of the image model supports the trimmed version of the full 0-7 severity scale. The classifier only returns severities 0, 2, 4, and 6; each two adjacent levels are mapped to a single level. You can refer image content severity levels definitions for details.

[0,1] -> 0
[2,3] -> 2
[4,5] -> 4
[6,7] -> 6

Text blocklist management
Following operations are supported to manage your text blocklist:

Create or modify a blocklist
List all blocklists
Get a blocklist by blocklistName
Add blocklistItems to a blocklist
Remove blocklistItems from a blocklist
List all blocklistItems in a blocklist by blocklistName
Get a blocklistItem in a blocklist by blocklistItemId and blocklistName
Delete a blocklist and all of its blocklistItems

You can set the blocklists you want to use when analyze text, then you can get blocklist match result from returned response.

Troubleshooting
General
Azure AI Content Safety client library will raise exceptions defined in Azure Core. Error codes are defined as below:



Error Code
Possible reasons
Suggestions




InvalidRequestBody
One or more fields in the request body do not match the API definition.
1. Check the API version you specified in the API call.2. Check the corresponding API definition for the API version you selected.


InvalidResourceName
The resource name you specified in the URL does not meet the requirements, like the blocklist name, blocklist term ID, etc.
1. Check the API version you specified in the API call.2. Check whether the given name has invalid characters according to the API definition.


ResourceNotFound
The resource you specified in the URL may not exist, like the blocklist name.
1. Check the API version you specified in the API call.2. Double check the existence of the resource specified in the URL.


InternalError
Some unexpected situations on the server side have been triggered.
1. You may want to retry a few times after a small period and see it the issue happens again.2. Contact Azure Support if this issue persists.


ServerBusy
The server side cannot process the request temporarily.
1. You may want to retry a few times after a small period and see it the issue happens again.2.Contact Azure Support if this issue persists.


TooManyRequests
The current RPS has exceeded the quota for your current SKU.
1. Check the pricing table to understand the RPS quota.2.Contact Azure Support if you need more QPS.



Logging
This library uses the standard logging library for logging.
Basic information about HTTP sessions (URLs, headers, etc.) is logged at INFO level.
Detailed DEBUG level logging, including request/response bodies and unredacted headers, can be enabled on the client or per-operation with the logging_enable keyword argument.
See full SDK logging documentation with examples here.
Optional Configuration
Optional keyword arguments can be passed in at the client and per-operation level. The azure-core reference documentation describes available configurations for retries, logging, transport protocols, and more.
