# Create a request

Creating a request requires the user to connect their wallet to be able to interact with the Lenfi P2P (Aada V1) dApp.

After connecting their wallet to the protocol, users must navigate to the **CREATE REQUEST** button at the top right corner of the loan request menu in the **MARKET** tab. By hitting the button, a pop-out window opens, allowing them to create a loan request with fully customizable parameters. Here are the key specifications of every loan request:

**Step 1: Loan type**. The user must choose the type of loan request to submit. Choosing the **Request liquidity** will allow the user to submit a borrower request, while choosing **Deposit liquidity** will enable submitting an offer as a lender.

**Step 2: Loan details.** After choosing the loan request type, the user can choose the token type and the amount to lend/borrow.

**Step 3: Interest details.** The user must fill in the loan term parameters in days and hours. The dApp will then suggest a feasible **Interest** to ensure the loan is healthy. The **Interest** is payable in ADA or LENFI. The specified amount is paid when the **Borrower** returns the loan.

**Step 4: Collateral.** The user sets the desired token and the collateral amount . The dApp provides a recommended amount for greater ease of use. If the collateral is below 1.0 **Health Factor**, the app doesn’t let it proceed. In addition, the user can set a loan expiration date, which will remove the request from the market after a certain period.&#x20;

**Step 5: Confirmation window.** The user can double-check the request parameters. When ready, the same can press the **Confirm** button and trigger the wallet pop-up to sign the transaction.

## 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://lenfi.gitbook.io/docs/lenfi-v1-protocol/lenfi-p2p-aada-v1/how-to-use-the-platform/menu/market/create-a-request.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.
