# How to create a Proposal

Enter in a DAO and click ‘Create a Proposal’ to start a community proposal. Community proposals, or regular proposals, are a great way to verify your idea and gather thoughts from the community and are manually executed off-chain, such as changing the roadmap, modifying articles, rebranding, etc.

In Community proposals, creators can set multiple customized voting options. To create the proposal, the creator needs to hold the required amount of DAO token which is determined by the DAO configuration. Once created, the proposal will be displayed on the DAO homepage as active.

**How to generate an Executable Proposal**

Once you are trying to change the DAO configuration, the DAO contract will automatically generate an executable proposal for community voting. Executable proposals only include binary votes (approve or disapprove) and will be executed by the DAO contract on-chain once it is passed.

Below is an example of changing the DAO configurations. Once you click **Update**, the system will scan your token holding and create this proposal. Once it is passed, the DAO configurations will be changed as your modification.

#### How to withdraw your proposal

You can withdraw your proposal anytime within in the voting period by clicking 'Undo Proposal' and confirming in your wallet.

## 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.awenetwork.ai/community/tutorials-and-resources/how-to-create-a-proposal.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.
