Function

SecretCollectioncreate_sync

Declaration [src]

SecretCollection*
secret_collection_create_sync (
  SecretService* service,
  const gchar* label,
  const gchar* alias,
  SecretCollectionCreateFlags flags,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Create a new collection in the secret service.

This method may block indefinitely and should not be used in user interface threads. The secret service may prompt the user. secret_service_prompt() will be used to handle any prompts that are required.

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 you specify an alias, and a collection with that alias already exists, then a new collection will not be created. The previous one will be returned instead.

If service is NULL, then secret_service_get_sync() will be called to get the default SecretService proxy.
