bus/session/org.freedesktop.Secret¶

Provide full access to the secret-service API:

• https://standards.freedesktop.org/secret-service/)

The secret-service allows managing (add/delete/lock/etc) collections and (add/delete/etc) items within collections. The API also has the concept of aliases for collections which is typically used to access the default collection. While it would be possible for an application developer to use a snap-specific collection and mediate by object path, application developers are meant to instead to treat collections (typically the default collection) as a database of key/value attributes each with an associated secret that applications may query. Because AppArmor does not mediate member data, typical and recommended usage of the API does not allow for application isolation. For details, see:
