API

Philter's API is divided into three parts, the Filtering API the Policies API, and the Alerts API.

  • Filtering API - The filtering API is used to redact text. With the filtering API, you can send text or PDF documents to Philter and receive back the redacted text or PDF document.
  • Policies API - The policies API allows you to create, modify, and delete policies. Policies can also be created manually with access to Philter, but the API provides a programmatic way to manage policies.
  • Alerts API - The alerts API allows you to get and delete alerts that were generated during redaction.

The Philter SDKs provide convenient methods for using Philter's API methods for various programming languages.
