I found that solace PubSub+ 1.6.0 support cache

> **[Feature Support in PubSub+ Messaging APIs](https://docs.solace.com/API/API-Developer-Guide/Feature-Support-PubSub-Messaging-APIs.htm)**

But I follow this

> **[Using PubSub+ Cache With the Python API](https://docs.solace.com/API/API-Developer-Guide-Python/Python-API-PubSub-Cache.htm)**

step to do cache request

I can not receive the cache message from **direct\_receiver.receive\_async(MessageHandlerExample())**  
but I can use **DirectMessageReceiver.** add\_subscription to get message(CacheStatus.LIVE).

and I also develope C# code it allowed call **SendCacheRequest** to receive cacehe message.

any one use python to call cache successlly?

Thanks

Hi @Chris ,

We actually just added a sample in solace-samples-python to use PS+ Cache a few days ago. Can you take a look and see if this helps you out!

Hi Marc,

I do try that **how\_to\_request\_cached\_data.py** but it still can’t receive cache data.

what detail settings should I check out?

my python code flow is  
1.MessagingService.connect()  
2.message\_receiver = MessagingService.create\_direct\_message\_receiver\_builder().build()

3.message\_receiver.start()

4.message\_receiver.receive\_async(MyMessageHandler())  
call cache request  
5.HowToUseCachedMessageSubscriptionRequests().create\_subscription\_request\_to\_receive\_latest\_message(message\_receiver , “subexpress”, “cache name”, 3000)  
or create\_subscription\_request\_to\_receive\_cached\_and\_live\_messages,

or create\_cached\_subscription\_with\_more\_options,

or create\_subscription\_to\_receiver\_only\_cached\_messages,

6.do another message\_receiver.add\_subscription  
is it correct?
