# How to create a SubDAO of Juno Governance

ie. how to create a DAO with the Juno Governance module as admin, which is not possible from the UI of daodao.zone as of June 2024.

1. Create a DAO like you normally would, eg. at https://testnet.daodao.zone/dao/create?chain=uni-6 for testing, or https://daodao.zone/dao/create?chain=juno-1 for mainnet.
2. At the end of the wizard, after clicking the "Review" button, check the "Show Instantiate Message" to view something like this:


3. Replace the `null` after "admin" with the address of the account you want to set as the admin of the to-be-created DAO, in this case Juno Governance = `juno10d07y265gmmuvt4z0w9aw880jnsr700jvss730`
4. Uncheck the "with Decoded Module Messages" to be able to paste all the Instantiate message text in your `junod` CLI
5. Instantiate the DAO by running a command like `junod tx wasm instantiate 4047 [json] --label [plain_text] --admin juno10d07y265gmmuvt4z0w9aw880jnsr700jvss730 --from [account] --fees [amount_denom] --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5`, where:
- `4047` is the code id of current version of DA0DA0 contracts on Juno mainnet,
- `[json]` is the message we copied above,
- `[account]` is your address or the name of the key saved in your junod (if the key is stored on an hardware device, you will probably also need to add `--sign-mode amino-json` to the command)
- `[amount_denom]` are the fees required for the transaction, which you can get as a response in the raw log after you try (& fail because of not enough fees) sending the transaction with a small amount like the default `10ujuno`; in this case I was instructed to use `153036ujuno`,
- `auto` is apparently needed if we want to use the `--gas-adjustment` feature, that will calculate a gas estimate to substitute automatically and that I used because the default of `--gas 200000` wasn't working, neither random manual adjustments (the command would seem ok and the transaction signed, but it would show as failed on the explorer).

The actual prompt I used was:

junod tx wasm instantiate 4047 '{
