Hello @tuba ,

There are a few different options available to connect to HiveMQ MQTT via Python. One on offer is the Paho Python client, which can be found [here](https://www.hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-client-library-paho-python/).

This will allow you to connect to MQTT using Python. As for your question in the [previous thread](https://community.hivemq.com/t/recieving-hivemq-published-data-in-timescale-db-cloud-via-python/2079), extensions and the extension SDK are also available for the HiveMQ Community Edition.

Best,  
Aaron from HiveMQ Team
