## Using Reverse ETL
126128
After you've followed [all four steps](/docs/connections/reverse-etl/#getting-started) and set up your source, model, destination, and mappings for Reverse ETL, your data will extract and sync to your destination(s) right away if you chose an interval schedule. If you set your data to extract at a specific day and time, the extraction will take place then.
