+<p>Synapse makes federation requests to other homeservers. If a federation request fails,
+Synapse will mark the destination homeserver as offline, preventing any future requests
+to that server for a &quot;cooldown&quot; period. This period grows over time if the server
+continues to fail its responses
+(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff">exponential backoff</a>).</p>
+<p>Admins can cancel the cooldown period with this API.</p>
+<p>This API resets the retry timing for a specific remote server and tries to connect to
+the remote server again. It does not wait for the next <code>retry_interval</code>.
+The connection must have previously run into an error and <code>retry_last_ts</code>
+(<a href="usage/administration/admin_api/federation.html#destination-details-api">Destination Details API</a>) must not be equal to <code>0</code>.</p>
+<p>The connection attempt is carried out in the background and can take a while
+even if the API already returns the http status 200.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>POST /_synapse/admin/v1/federation/destinations/&lt;destination&gt;/reset_connection
+
+{}
+</code></pre>
+<p><strong>Parameters</strong></p>
+<p>The following parameters should be set in the URL:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>destination</code> - Name of the remote server.</li>

 <p>The &quot;manhole&quot; allows server administrators to access a Python shell on a running
 Synapse installation. This is a very powerful mechanism for administration and
