Declaration [src]

void
secret_service_create_collection_dbus_path (
  SecretService* self,
  GHashTable* properties,
  const gchar* alias,
  SecretCollectionCreateFlags flags,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Create a new collection in the secret service, and return its path.

Using this method requires that you setup a correct hash table of D-Bus properties for the new collection. You may prefer to use secret_collection_create() which does handles this for you.

An alias is a well-known tag for a collection, such as ‘default’ (ie: the default collection to store items in). This allows other applications to easily identify and share a collection. If a collection with the alias already exists, then instead of creating a new collection, the existing collection will be returned. If no collection with this alias exists, then a new collection will be created and this alias will be assigned to it.

properties is a set of properties for the new collection. The keys in the hash table should be interface.property strings like org.freedesktop.Secret.Collection.Label. The values in the hash table should be GVariant values of the properties.

If you wish to have a

This method will return immediately and complete asynchronously. The secret service may prompt the user. secret_service_prompt() will be used to handle any prompts that are required.

Stability: Unstable

This method is not directly available to language bindings.
