Topics - Moderation API

Topic policies don’t flag content as harmful — they flag it as off-topic for products that explicitly want to keep certain subjects out of their community. Pair them with the recommendation action of your choice (typically review rather than reject).

Policies

`id`	Type	Supported	What it does
`political`	`classifier`	text, audio	Political content, discussions, or opinions.
`religion`	`classifier`	text, audio	Religious content, discussions, or opinions.

Reading the result

const political = response.policies.find(p => p.id === "political");
if (political?.flagged) {
  await sendToReview(content);
}

These categories are intentionally broad. They’re best used in environments with a clear scope — a cooking community, a developer forum, a customer support channel — where any political or religious tangent is off-topic regardless of tone.
