### Function

# Secretpassword_store_sync

#### Declaration [src]

    gboolean
    secret_password_store_sync (
      const SecretSchema* schema,
      const gchar* collection,
      const gchar* label,
      const gchar* password,
      GCancellable* cancellable,
      GError** error,
      ...
    )

#### Description [src]

Store a password in the secret service.

The variable argument list should contain pairs of a) The attribute name as a null-terminated string, followed by b) attribute value, either a character string, an int number, or a gboolean value, as defined in the `schema`. The list of attributes should be terminated with a `NULL`.

If the attributes match a secret item already stored in the collection, then the item will be updated with these new values.

If `collection` is `NULL`, then the default collection will be used. Use `SECRET_COLLECTION_SESSION` to store the password in the session collection, which doesn’t get stored across login sessions.

This method may block indefinitely and should not be used in user interface threads.

This function is not directly available to language bindings.

The implementation of this function is provided by `secret_password_storev_sync()` in language bindings.
