# Why did my AI page build fail?

> A failed build gives its credit back. Read the message, fix the cause, and click Retry under Recent pages.

A failed build gives its credit back. Most failures clear up on a second try. Click **Retry** on the row under **Recent pages**, or fix the cause below first.

## Retry a build

1. In Shopify admin, open **Apps** → **Section Store** → **AI Pages**.
2. Under **Recent pages**, find the row marked **Failed**.
3. Click **Retry**.

A retry is a new build with the same choices. It uses one credit, the one that came back, so you pay for the page once. It needs active Plus.
