Use Akismet in Okou

Use the Akismet API to check comments, contact forms, signups, and other user-submitted text for spam; report missed spam or false positives; inspect sites using an Akismet key; and monitor monthly API usage.

Once connected, supported Akismet actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Akismet

  • Submit user-provided content to Akismet for a spam classification. Each request sends content to the provider and consumes the account's monthly spam-check allowance.
  • Submit missed-spam or false-positive feedback to Akismet for training. These requests change provider-side classification data.
  • Read the sites using the API key and their monthly spam, ham, missed-spam, and false-positive activity.
  • Read the API key's current monthly allowance, usage percentage, and throttling status.
