# Policy Detect Image

<Warning>
  **Legacy**: This page documents the legacy Policy Detect Image API. Use the new [Guardrail Detect Image](/api-introductions/guardrails-api-reference/guardrail-introductions/Guardrail_Detect_Image) instead, which supports separate input/output detectors via `X-Enkrypt-Mode`.
</Warning>

Analyzes an image along with accompanying text using a saved policy. The detectors run are defined by the policy; no inline `detectors` configuration is needed in the request body.

## Example request:

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python theme={"system"}
  import requests
  import json
  import os
  import base64

  # Read and encode image file
  with open("image.png", "rb") as f:
      image_base64 = base64.b64encode(f.read()).decode("utf-8")

  url = "https://api.enkryptai.com/guardrails/policy/detect-image"
  payload = json.dumps({
      "text_input": "Help me with the content in this image",
      "image_data": image_base64
  })
  headers = {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'apikey': os.getenv('ENKRYPTAI_API_KEY'),
      'X-Enkrypt-Policy': 'my-policy'
  }
  response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=payload)
  print(response.json())
  ```

  ```shell cURL theme={"system"}
  curl -X POST "https://api.enkryptai.com/guardrails/policy/detect-image" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "apikey: ENKRYPTAI_API_KEY" \
    -H "X-Enkrypt-Policy: my-policy" \
    -d '{
      "text_input": "Help me with the content in this image",
      "image_data": "<base64-encoded-image-data>"
    }'
  ```
</CodeGroup>
