+## Reload plugin
+
+This endpoint performs the same operation as
+[reset connection](/vault/api-docs/secret/databases#reset-connection) but for
+all connections that reference a specific plugin name. This can be useful to
+restart a specific plugin after it's been upgraded in the plugin catalog.

+| `POST` | `/database/reload/:plugin_name` |
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `plugin_name` `(string: <required>)` – Specifies the name of the plugin for
+  which all connections should be reset. This is specified as part of the URL.
+
+### Sample request
