Setup

2.1 Credentials

Before you can send reports, you need credentials from the DSA Transparency Database.

1. Request credentials from the DSA team. See onboarding documentation for more information.

2. Go to Compliance Settings.

3. Add new credentials:

   • Environment: sandbox or production. Use the sandbox environment for testing to validate reports before switching to production.

   • API tokens: The credentials you obtained in step 1.

   • Terms of Service: A URL pointing to your terms and conditions.

   • Territorial scope: By default, all countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) are included. You can limit this to specific countries if needed.

   • Categories: If you manage multiple brands under one workspace, you can configure separate credentials per category. Otherwise, select Use credentials for all categories.

2.2 Reports per policy

Once credentials are configured, you can enable automatic reporting per policy category.

1. Go to Policies

2. Select the policy category you want to send reports for.

3. Choose the policy type: user or content. Reporting requires a policy to be explicitly marked as one of these types.

4. Enable DSA reporting for this policy.

5. Fill in the required fields. Details about these fields can be found in the DSA API documentation. For inspiration, check out example reports at the Transparency Database.

6. Done! Any time a user or piece of content is removed/banned under this policy, a report will automatically be created.

7. Go to the Compliance Overview to view all pending/submitted reports.
