# SecurityStatusRequest <e> message

## FIX 5.0 SP2 EP299

### Description

 The Security Status Request message provides for the ability to request the status of a security. One or more [SecurityStatus <f>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep299/msgType_f_102.html) messages are returned as a result of a Security Status Request message.

 The Security Status Request message contains a [SubscriptionRequestType <263>](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/5.0.sp2.ep299/tagNum_263.html) field. This tells the counter party what type of request is being made:

- 0 – indicates that the requestor only wants a snapshot or the current status.
- 1 – indicates that the requestor wants a snapshot (the current status) plus updates as the status changes. This is similar to subscribing for information and can be implemented in applications as a subscription mechanism.
- 2 – indicates that the requestor wishes to cancel any pending snapshots or updates - in essence making this an unsubscribe operation.
