    <interface name="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings.Connection">
        <tp:docstring>
            Represents a single network connection configuration.
        </tp:docstring>

        <method name="Update">
          <tp:docstring>
            Update the connection with new settings and properties (replacing
            all previous settings and properties) and save the connection to
            disk.  Secrets may be part of the update request, and will be either
            stored in persistent storage or sent to a Secret Agent for storage,
            depending on the flags associated with each secret.
          </tp:docstring>
          <arg name="properties" type="a{sa{sv}}" direction="in">
            <tp:docstring>
              New connection settings, properties, and (optionally) secrets.
            </tp:docstring>
          </arg>
        </method>

        <method name="UpdateUnsaved">
          <tp:docstring>
            Update the connection with new settings and properties (replacing
            all previous settings and properties) but do not immediately save
            the connection to disk.  Secrets may be part of the update request
            and may sent to a Secret Agent for storage, depending on the
            flags associated with each secret.

            Use the 'Save' method to save these changes to disk. Note
            that unsaved changes will be lost if the connection is
            reloaded from disk (either automatically on file change or
            due to an explicit ReloadConnections call).

        <method name="Delete">
          <tp:docstring>
            Delete the connection.
          </tp:docstring>
        </method>

        <method name="GetSettings">
            <tp:docstring>
                Get the settings maps describing this network configuration.
                This will never include any secrets required for connection
                to the network, as those are often protected.  Secrets must
                be requested separately using the GetSecrets() call.

        <method name="GetSecrets">
            <tp:docstring>
                Get the secrets belonging to this network configuration.  Only
                secrets from persistent storage or a Secret Agent running in
                the requestor's session will be returned.  The user will never
                be prompted for secrets as a result of this request.

            <arg name="setting_name" type="s" direction="in">
                <tp:docstring>
                    Name of the setting to return secrets for.  If empty, all
                    all secrets will be returned.

        <method name="Save">
            <tp:docstring>
                Saves a "dirty" connection (that had previously been
                updated with UpdateUnsaved) to persistent storage.
            </tp:docstring>
        </method>

        <signal name="Updated">
            <tp:docstring>
                Emitted when any settings or permissions change.  When handling
                this signal, clients should re-read the connection using the
                GetSettings method to get the changes and to ensure the client
                still has permission to access the connection.
            </tp:docstring>
        </signal>

        <signal name="Removed">
            <tp:docstring>
                Emitted when this connection is no longer available.  This
                happens when the connection is deleted or if it is no longer
                accessible by any of the system's logged-in users.  After
                receipt of this signal, the object no longer exists.  Also
                see the Settings.ConnectionRemoved signal.

        <property name="Unsaved" type="b" access="read">
            <tp:docstring>
                If set, indicates that the in-memory state of the
                connection does not match the on-disk state. This flag
                will be set when UpdateUnsaved() is called or when any
                connection details change, and cleared when the connection
                is saved to disk via Save() or from internal operations.
