# Node Clawback

Another option available as an emergency measure is the ability to clawback assets from a node. This can be toggled off during node creation if desired. When a clawback is initiated, all assets from the node treasury are transferred to the parent treasury.

A clawback can only be initiated once a node is frozen.

To initiate a clawback, navigate to the node you wish to clawback from and select the settings cog from the node homepage. An option to initiate a clawback should appear as an option from a dropdown menu. Carrying through with the clawback transaction will immediately transfer assets from the node treasury to the parent.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.decentdao.org/app/user-guide/project-hierarchy/node-clawback.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
