Secret.Service.create_collection_dbus_path

### Method

# Secret Servicecreate_collection_dbus_path

#### 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.
