I have a doc A and a doc B, I'd like to put a node extracted from A in the document B but I always get a ValueError:

Sounds like you're using remove() or index(), no need to do that.

I didn't find any "setparent" in the API.

How can I do this?

try

node_in_B.append(node_in_A)

See the "Elements are lists" section in the tutorial.
