# Guardrail Tutorials

Use the following tutorials to learn how to accomplish common guardrail tasks using the NeMo Guardrails API.

> **Tip**
>
> Before starting a tutorial, complete [Setup](/documentation/get-started) to configure a `ModelProvider` and discover models. The tutorials assume you have models available in the `default` workspace.

Once a `ModelProvider` is configured, use Model Entity references (`workspace/name` format) as the `model` in your guardrail configurations. The guardrails plugin resolves task model endpoints through IGW's route table. Refer to [Model Routing](/documentation/guardrail-models/core-concepts/running-inference#guardrails-model-routing) for more details.

```python
guardrails_config = {
    "models": [
        {
            "type": "content_safety",
            "engine": "nim",
            "model": "default/nvidia-llama-3-1-nemotron-safety-guard-8b-v3",
        }
    ],
    # ... rest of config
}
```
