# show consumers

    show consumers  [topic=name | queue=name] [durable] [user=name] [connection=id] [sort=conn|user|dest|msgs] [full]

Shows information about all consumers or only consumers matching specified filters. Output of the command can be controlled by specifying the `sort` or `full` parameter. If the `topic` or `queue` parameter is specified, then only consumers on destinations matching specified queue or topic are shown. The `user` and/or `connection` parameters show consumers only for the specified user or connection. Note that while the queue browser is open, it appears as a consumer in the EMS server.

The `durable` parameter shows only durable topic subscribers and queue receivers, but it does not prevent queue consumers to be shown. To see only durable topic consumers, use:

    show consumers topic=> durable

The `sort` parameter sorts the consumers by either connection ID, user name, destination name, or number of pending messages. The full parameter shows all columns listed below and can be as wide as 120-140 characters or wider. Both topic and queue consumers are shown in separate tables, first the topic consumers and then the queue consumers.

Note: When connected to an EMS 8.0 or higher server, this command no longer displays offline durable subscribers. In order to see offline durables, use the command `show durables` or `show subscriptions`.

P - system-created receiver on global queue for user receiver created in one of routes.

A - mode of consumer's session, values are: N - no acknowledge A - auto acknowledge D - dups_ok acknowledge C - client acknowledge T - session is transactional X - XA or MS DTC session Z - connection consumer S - '+' if consumer has a selector, '-' otherwise. N - (TOPICS ONLY) '+' if subscriber is "NoLocal." B - (QUEUES ONLY) '+' if consumer is a queue browser. S - (TOPICS ONLY) '+' if this is a shared consumer.

`Pend Size` | (Topics Only.) Combined size of messages pending for the topic consumer. Value is rounded and shown in bytes, (K)ilobytes, (M)egabytes or (G)igabytes.
