Overview

Guardrails are pre-deployed scanners that evaluate user inputs and model outputs to help maintain safe, responsible, and compliant AI interactions. You enable the scanners you need—no deployment required.

Enable Scanners

All scanners are pre-deployed and available by default. You must enable the required scanners in each agentic app or tool where you want to use them. To enable scanners, follow these steps:
  1. Open the Guardrails settings for your app or tool:
    • Agentic apps: Go to Agentic apps, select your app, then go to Settings > PII & Guardrails > Guardrails.
    • Tools: Go to Tools, select the tool you want to configure, then select Guardrails.
  2. On the Guardrails page, review the Input scanners and Output scanners tabs. Turn on the toggle next to each scanner you want to apply. Enable Guardrail
  3. To configure a scanner, click it, adjust the available options, then click Save. The available options vary by scanner. For example, the Toxicity scanner includes Risk Threshold and Detection Sensitivity, while the Regex scanner includes Scanner mode (Block or Allow), pattern entry fields, and a Risk threshold slider.
