ModerationRule

Represents a rule used in your community to moderate member-generated content. Available in Tooling API version 36.0 and later.

Each rule specifies the member-generated content the rule applies to, the criteria to enforce the rule on, and the moderation action to take. Moderation rules help protect your community from spammers, bots, and offensive or inappropriate content.
