Retrieve the Blogs moderation service document 

Before you can manage the entries and comments added to a blog or flagged as inappropriate, retrieve the moderation service document. You can use the links that it provides to locate the resources that await moderation approval.

The user authenticating the request must be the moderator of the Blogs application.

The service document provides two workspaces, one for entry moderation and one for comment moderation. If premoderation is enabled, then additional collections are also available.
