+# Refactor Extract Request
+
+## Description
+
+Provides commands to extract an arbitrary region into a fresh let binding.
+
+## Client Capability
+
+There is no client capability relative to this request.
+
+## Server capability
+
+- property name: `refactorExtract`
+- property type: `boolean`
+
+## Request
+
+- method: `ocamllsp/refactorExtract`
+- params:
+
+  ```json
+  {
+    "uri": textDocument,
+    "start": Position,
+    "stop": Position,
+    "extract_name?": string,
+  }
+  ```
+
+`start` and `stop` represents the region to be extracted. The `extract_name` parameter allows choosing the name of the generated let binding. If `extract_name` is not specified, a name not taken in the scope is chosen.
+
+## Response
+
+```json
+{
+  "position": Range,
+  "content": string,
+  "selection_range": Range
+}
+```
+
+The result contains the range (`position`) to be replaced (describing the selected region), the output intended to be substituted (`content`) and the range of the identifier of the generated binding (`selection_range`) which allows renaming it easily.
