## D-Bus API Reference

### Objects & Names

#### The org.gnome.OnlineAccounts bus name

The D-Bus name `org.gnome.OnlineAccounts` on the session bus is used by the GOA daemon, goa-daemon. If this daemon isn't running, it will be started if D-Bus messages are sent to the name.

#### The /org/gnome/OnlineAccounts and /org/gnome/OnlineAccounts/Manager objects

The process that owns the well-known D-Bus name org.gnome.OnlineAccounts on the session bus (typically goa-daemon) exports an object at the well-known path `/org/gnome/OnlineAccounts`. This object implements the org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager interface and should be used by clients to discover other objects.

One of the objects in the `/org/gnome/OnlineAccounts` hierarchy is an object at the path `/org/gnome/OnlineAccounts/Manager` which implements the org.gnome.OnlineAccounts.Manager interface.
