This article contains a breakdown of key concepts in Implio.
Items
A piece of content that enters Implio is called an item. Each item gets assigned an individual task ID, which will follow through the entire moderation process, all the way back to you.
After an item is submitted to Implio for moderation through the API, all automation rules enabled in your team are evaluated. This process can take a few seconds during which the item will have a Processing status.
After all rules have been evaluated, an item will end up with one of the following statuses: Approved, Refused, Reviewable or No decision.

Automation
Automation allows you to leverage the full power of Implio. You can automatically approve, refuse and send items to manual review, as well as highlight certain words and add notes to the manual review panel.
Rules
Automation in Implio builds on rules. Implio tests incoming items against all active rules in order to find a match and make a decision.
A Rule consists of an expression and an action.
Expressions and Actions
An Expression decides whether an item matches a rule or not.
An Action is a suggested action that a particular rule gives to an item. Since an item can be matched to multiple rules, this might not always be the final decision. You can choose from four types of actions: Refuse, Approve, Manual or Nothing, where “nothing” is most often used for analytics purposes. Read more about decisions under orchestration.

Lists
Lists can be used to facilitate rules that include multiple keywords. These keywords could either be exact or regular expressions.
Orchestration
Based on the action/s of the rule/s that match an item, the orchestration function will make a final decision to Approve, Refuse or Require Manual Moderation. If an item matches multiple rules, the orchestration flow will decide the final decision.

Manual Moderation
Items that require manual review are sent to the manual moderation panel.
Default Inbox
Items that are sent to manual moderation enters the default inbox for first line moderation. Items in this inbox can be manually either approved, refused or escalated. You can also choose select to send improvement suggestions to the end user.
Escalated Inbox
Items that have been escalated from the default inbox enters the escalated inbox. These items could for example need extra work or an expert review.
Content Locking
An item that enters the manual review panel gets locked to the first user loading it for 10 minutes. It will not be possible to open this item in another tab or for other users to load it. This is to avoid that two moderators work on the same item at the same time.
