How to Attach Guardrails to Agentspublic

Guardrails are security components you can attach to GenAI Platform agents. A guardrail overrides the agent’s output when it detects sensitive or inappropriate content in the input or response. For example, it can block the agent from sharing login credentials or credit card information. For details, see our list of supported guardrails.

GenAI supports three guardrails: sensitive data, jailbreak, and content moderation. You can further customize these guardrails by duplicating and editing them.

Attach Guardrails using the Control Panel

You can attach guardrails to agents in two ways. To simultaneously attach multiple guardrails to the same agent, use the agent’s Resource page. To simultaneously attach multiple agents to the same guardrail, use the Guardrails page.
