# ReceiveMessage SignalR client method

> ReceiveMessage SignalR client method for PlayFab Lobby and Matchmaking real-time messages, invoked by the hub to deliver payloads from subscribed resources.

> [!NOTE]
>
> The REST and SignalR APIs documented here are more complex than the client SDKs. Consider using the [Lobby C++ SDK](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pflobby/pflobby_members.md) or [Matchmaking C++ SDK](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pfmatchmaking/pfmatchmaking_members.md) instead, unless those SDKs don't meet your needs.

Receives messages from [real-time messages
subscriptions](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/real-time-messages/subscribing-to-resources.md).

```text theme={null}
ReceiveMessage(Message message)
```

> [!TIP]
>
> This is a SignalR client method. See [documentation on exposing client methods](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/signalr/dotnet-client#call-client-methods-from-hub) in a SignalR client, which will be invoked by the server.
