Client Creation

With API Key

import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.ContentSafetyClient;
import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.ContentSafetyClientBuilder;
import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.BlocklistClient;
import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.BlocklistClientBuilder;
import com.azure.core.credential.KeyCredential;

String endpoint = System.getenv("CONTENT_SAFETY_ENDPOINT");
String key = System.getenv("CONTENT_SAFETY_KEY");

ContentSafetyClient contentSafetyClient = new ContentSafetyClientBuilder()
    .credential(new KeyCredential(key))
    .endpoint(endpoint)
    .buildClient();

BlocklistClient blocklistClient = new BlocklistClientBuilder()
    .credential(new KeyCredential(key))
    .endpoint(endpoint)
    .buildClient();

With DefaultAzureCredential

import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;

ContentSafetyClient client = new ContentSafetyClientBuilder()
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .endpoint(endpoint)
    .buildClient();

Key Concepts

Harm Categories

Severity Levels

• Text: 0-7 scale (default outputs 0, 2, 4, 6)
• Image: 0, 2, 4, 6 (trimmed scale)

Core Patterns

Analyze Text

import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.models.*;

AnalyzeTextResult result = contentSafetyClient.analyzeText(
    new AnalyzeTextOptions("This is text to analyze"));

for (TextCategoriesAnalysis category : result.getCategoriesAnalysis()) {
    System.out.printf("Category: %s, Severity: %d%n",
        category.getCategory(),
        category.getSeverity());
}

Analyze Text with Options

AnalyzeTextOptions options = new AnalyzeTextOptions("Text to analyze")
    .setCategories(Arrays.asList(
        TextCategory.HATE,
        TextCategory.VIOLENCE))
    .setOutputType(AnalyzeTextOutputType.EIGHT_SEVERITY_LEVELS);

AnalyzeTextResult result = contentSafetyClient.analyzeText(options);

Analyze Text with Blocklist

AnalyzeTextOptions options = new AnalyzeTextOptions("I h*te you and want to k*ll you")
    .setBlocklistNames(Arrays.asList("my-blocklist"))
    .setHaltOnBlocklistHit(true);

AnalyzeTextResult result = contentSafetyClient.analyzeText(options);

if (result.getBlocklistsMatch() != null) {
    for (TextBlocklistMatch match : result.getBlocklistsMatch()) {
        System.out.printf("Blocklist: %s, Item: %s, Text: %s%n",
            match.getBlocklistName(),
            match.getBlocklistItemId(),
            match.getBlocklistItemText());
    }
}

Analyze Image

import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.models.*;
import com.azure.core.util.BinaryData;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

// From file
byte[] imageBytes = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("image.png"));
ContentSafetyImageData imageData = new ContentSafetyImageData()
    .setContent(BinaryData.fromBytes(imageBytes));

AnalyzeImageResult result = contentSafetyClient.analyzeImage(
    new AnalyzeImageOptions(imageData));

for (ImageCategoriesAnalysis category : result.getCategoriesAnalysis()) {
    System.out.printf("Category: %s, Severity: %d%n",
        category.getCategory(),
        category.getSeverity());
}

Analyze Image from URL

ContentSafetyImageData imageData = new ContentSafetyImageData()
    .setBlobUrl("https://example.com/image.jpg");

AnalyzeImageResult result = contentSafetyClient.analyzeImage(
    new AnalyzeImageOptions(imageData));

Blocklist Management

Create or Update Blocklist

import com.azure.core.http.rest.RequestOptions;
import com.azure.core.http.rest.Response;
import com.azure.core.util.BinaryData;
import java.util.Map;

Map<String, String> description = Map.of("description", "Custom blocklist");
BinaryData resource = BinaryData.fromObject(description);

Response<BinaryData> response = blocklistClient.createOrUpdateTextBlocklistWithResponse(
    "my-blocklist", resource, new RequestOptions());

if (response.getStatusCode() == 201) {
    System.out.println("Blocklist created");
} else if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) {
    System.out.println("Blocklist updated");
}

Add Block Items

```java import com.azure.ai.contentsafety.models.*; import java.util.Arrays;

List items = Arrays.asList( new TextBlocklistItem("badword1").setDescription("Offensive term"), new TextBlocklistItem("badword2").setDescription("Another term") );

AddOrUpdateTextBlocklistItemsResult res
