Quick Start

Setup Prompt Injection Detection, PII Masking on LiteLLM Proxy (AI Gateway)

1. Define guardrails on your LiteLLM config.yaml​

Set your guardrails under the guardrails section

model_list:
- model_name: gpt-3.5-turbo
litellm_params:
model: openai/gpt-3.5-turbo
api_key: os.environ/OPENAI_API_KEY

guardrails:
- guardrail_name: "aporia-pre-guard"
litellm_params:
guardrail: aporia # supported values: "aporia", "lakera"
mode: "during_call"
api_key: os.environ/APORIA_API_KEY_1
api_base: os.environ/APORIA_API_BASE_1
- guardrail_name: "aporia-post-guard"
litellm_params:
guardrail: aporia # supported values: "aporia", "lakera"
mode: "post_call"
api_key: os.environ/APORIA_API_KEY_2
api_base: os.environ/APORIA_API_BASE_2

Supported values for mode (Event Hooks)​

  • pre_call Run before LLM call, on input
  • post_call Run after LLM call, on input & output
  • during_call Run during LLM call, on input Same as pre_call but runs in parallel as LLM call. Response not returned until guardrail check completes

2. Start LiteLLM Gateway​

litellm --config config.yaml --detailed_debug

3. Test request​

Langchain, OpenAI SDK Usage Examples

Expect this to fail since since ishaan@berri.ai in the request is PII

curl -i http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk-npnwjPQciVRok5yNZgKmFQ" \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "hi my email is ishaan@berri.ai"}
],
"guardrails": ["aporia-pre-guard", "aporia-post-guard"]
}'

Expected response on failure

{
"error": {
"message": {
"error": "Violated guardrail policy",
"aporia_ai_response": {
"action": "block",
"revised_prompt": null,
"revised_response": "Aporia detected and blocked PII",
"explain_log": null
}
},
"type": "None",
"param": "None",
"code": "400"
}
}

✨ Control Guardrails per Project (API Key)​

info

✨ This is an Enterprise only feature Contact us to get a free trial

Use this to control what guardrails run per project. In this tutorial we only want the following guardrails to run for 1 project (API Key)

  • guardrails: ["aporia-pre-guard", "aporia-post-guard"]

Step 1 Create Key with guardrail settings

curl -X POST 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/key/generate' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-D '{
"guardrails": ["aporia-pre-guard", "aporia-post-guard"]
}
}'

Step 2 Test it with new key

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer sk-jNm1Zar7XfNdZXp49Z1kSQ' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "my email is ishaan@berri.ai"
}
]
}'

✨ Disable team from turning on/off guardrails​

info

✨ This is an Enterprise only feature Contact us to get a free trial

1. Disable team from modifying guardrails​

curl -X POST 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/team/update' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-1234' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-D '{
"team_id": "4198d93c-d375-4c83-8d5a-71e7c5473e50",
"metadata": {"guardrails": {"modify_guardrails": false}}
}'

2. Try to disable guardrails for a call​

curl --location 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/chat/completions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer $LITELLM_VIRTUAL_KEY' \
--data '{
"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
"messages": [
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Think of 10 random colors."
}
],
"metadata": {"guardrails": {"hide_secrets": false}}
}'

3. Get 403 Error​

{
"error": {
"message": {
"error": "Your team does not have permission to modify guardrails."
},
"type": "auth_error",
"param": "None",
"code": 403
}
}

Expect to NOT see +1 412-612-9992 in your server logs on your callback.
