​
3. Add Guardrail ID to a Config and Make Your Request

  • When you save a Guardrail, you’ll get an associated Guardrail ID - add this ID to the input_guardrails or output_guardrails params in your Portkey Config
  • Create these Configs in Portkey UI, save them, and get an associated Config ID to attach to your requests. More here.
Here’s an example config: 
{
  "input_guardrails": ["guardrails-id-xxx", "guardrails-id-yyy"],
  "output_guardrails": ["guardrails-id-xxx", "guardrails-id-yyy"]
}

const portkey = new Portkey({
    apiKey: "PORTKEY_API_KEY",
    config: "pc-***" // Supports a string config id or a config object
});
For more, refer to the Config documentation. Your requests are now guarded by Mistral’s moderation service, and you can see the verdict and any actions taken directly in your Portkey logs!
