### Using the recovery path
TODO: have a longer form document on recovery through the recovery path.
You may sweep the coins whose timelocked recovery path is available. You will need to sign the
transaction using the recovery key, hence make sure to connect the appropriate signing device.
In the GUI, this option is available in the "Settings" menu at the "Recovery" section. Click on the
"Recover funds" button, enter the destination for the sweep and the feerate you want to use for the
sweep transaction. Then sign it with the recovery key and broadcast it.
For the daemon, see the [`createrecovery`](doc/API.md#createrecovery) command. It will create a
sweep PSBT to the requested address with the specified feerate, filled with all available coins.
