safe
booleandefault: trueDrops explicit content. On by default.
Safety is classified at admission into safe, mature and explicit. The default drops explicit passages; setting safe=false includes them, which some research and moderation workloads legitimately need.
Example
curl -H "x-api-key: $UNLOB_API_KEY" \
"https://api.unlob.com/search?q=content+moderation&safe=false"Common questions
What does the safe filter do?
Drops explicit content. On by default.
When should I use safe?
Leave it alone unless you have a specific reason. Turn it off only for moderation or research.
Filters are free
Every filter is evaluated against a stored field, so it narrows the candidate set before scoring — a filtered query is often faster than an unfiltered one.
