Failed Moderation with Engagement

When content fails moderation, engagement processing is skipped:

    "service": "moderation_engagement",
    "cached": false,

        "code": "MODERATION_BLOCKED_ENGAGEMENT",
        "message": "Content failed moderation. Engagement processing was not attempted."
    }
}
GET /process/{result_id}

Retrieve previous processing results using the result ID.

Path Parameters
Parameter Type Description
result_id required string The result ID from a previous processing request
Example Request
GET https://gatherednewswire.com/api/v1/process/res_39afc98f5537?api_key=YOUR_KEY
Example Response
{
    "status": "success",
    "result_id": "res_39afc98f5537",
    "service": "moderation",
    "cached": false,
    "processing_time_ms": 4359,
    "results": {
        "moderation": {
            "passed": true,
            "flagged": false,
            "category": null,
            "confidence": 0.9,
            "message": "Content is appropriate"
        }
    }
}

Caching Behavior

The Processing API caches results to improve performance and reduce costs:

  • Identical content submitted with the same service returns cached results
  • Cached responses have "cached": true and "processing_time_ms": 0
  • Cache is content-specific: same text with different services creates separate cache entries
  • Results can be retrieved anytime using the result_id
Example Cached Response
{
    "status": "success",
    "result_id": "res_39afc98f5537",
    "service": "moderation",
    "cached": true,
    "processing_time_ms": 0,
    "results": {
        "moderation": {
            "passed": true,
            "flagged": false,
            "category": null,
            "confidence": 0.9,
            "message": "Content is appropriate"
        }
    }
}

Error Handling

The API uses standard HTTP response codes to indicate success or failure.

Status Code Description Common Causes
200 OK Successful request -
400 Bad Request Invalid parameters Invalid category, missing required fields, content too long
401 Unauthorized Authentication failed Missing or invalid API key
404 Not Found Resource not found Invalid endpoint or result_id
429 Too Many Requests Rate limit exceeded Too many requests in time window
500 Internal Server Error Server error Temporary server issue
