If the error causing the load failure is coming from an upstream tool, you can fix the error in the upstream tool to resolve the load error on a subsequent sync. + +> warning "Syncs with intervals less than one hour may not see failed events on sync immediately following failed record" +> Syncs with intervals less than or equal to one hour may not see failed events retried right away, as Segment's internal systems take up to one hour to retry events that initially failed. ## Reset syncs You can reset your syncs so that your data is synced from the beginning. This means that Segment resyncs your entire dataset for the model.
