# The Withdraw Incentives Action

I'll take my funds elsewhere

*Note*: The withdraw incentives action code can be found [here](https://github.com/DIG-Network/reward-distributor-clsp/blob/main/rue-puzzles/actions/reward_distributor/withdraw_incentives.rue) ([Chialisp](https://github.com/DIG-Network/reward-distributor-clsp/blob/main/puzzles/actions/reward_distributor/withdraw_incentives.clsp)).

Users that committed incentives to a future epoch can call this action to 'claw back' their commitment. This is done by sending a message from the `clawback_ph` specified when the rewards were committed, which is assumed to be a custody puzzle (hence, the refund will be sent to the same puzzle).

The action does not create a puzzle announcement. Instead, the user must send a puzzle-puzzle (18) message to the Reward Distributor with no contents. If the user has multiple commitments, they should assert that the correct commitment slot is spent - commitment slots are only spent when commitments are clawed back.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.xchandles.com/technical-manual/reward-distributors/the-withdraw-incentives-action.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.
