Detect Spam API - ApyHub

About

The Detect Spam API uses AI to analyze content and determine whether it is spam, providing a confidence score and detailed explanation for each assessment.
This API is ideal for developers building content moderation tools, email filters, or social media platforms. It automates spam detection, helping maintain the quality and integrity of user-generated content. Common use cases include moderating forum posts, filtering spam emails, and analyzing comments or messages for spammy behavior, ensuring safer and cleaner online interactions.
Try out the Detect Spam API in the API playground to streamline spam detection and enhance content moderation workflows with a simple API call.
Apy Jobs are long running calls which are split into two actions:
1. Submitting the job
2. Checking the status of the job and receiving the response on successful completion of the job.

Authentication

All API requests to ApyHub services need to be authenticated. Currently we support tokens or basic authentication mechanisms. You can generate and view your existing credentials from your workspace settings (on the left side of the navbar) and go to “API Keys".
Points to note:
  • Credential secrets are generated on the fly and are not stored in plain text, so on generating a credential please save the secrets somewhere safe.
  • Use the apy-token as the header parameter to pass the token.
  • Use the Authorization header to send the basic authentication credentials.
