# /moderations


### Usage
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="python" label="LiteLLM Python SDK">

```python
from litellm import moderation

response = moderation(
    input="hello from litellm",
    model="text-moderation-stable"
)
```

</TabItem>
<TabItem value="proxy" label="LiteLLM Proxy Server">

For `/moderations` endpoint, there is **no need to specify `model` in the request or on the litellm config.yaml**


1. Setup config.yaml
```yaml
model_list:
  - model_name: text-moderation-stable
    litellm_params:
      model: openai/omni-moderation-latest
```

2. Start litellm proxy server 

```
litellm --config /path/to/config.yaml
```


<Tabs>
<TabItem value="python" label="OpenAI Python SDK">

```python
from openai import OpenAI

# set base_url to your proxy server
# set api_key to send to proxy server
client = OpenAI(api_key="<proxy-api-key>", base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000")

response = client.moderations.create(
    input="hello from litellm",
    model="text-moderation-stable"
)

print(response)
```
</TabItem>

<TabItem value="curl" label="Curl Request">

```shell
curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/moderations' \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
    --data '{"input": "Sample text goes here", "model": "text-moderation-stable"}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
