NAME

       goa-daemon - GNOME Online Accounts Daemon

SYNOPSIS

       goa-daemon [--help] [--replace]

DESCRIPTION

       The goa-daemon program provides the org.gnome.OnlineAccounts name on the session message
       bus. Users or administrators should never need to start this daemon as it will be
       automatically started by dbus-daemon(1) whenever an application sends a D-Bus message to
       the org.gnome.OnlineAccounts name on the session bus.

CONFIGURATION FILE

       The goa-daemon program stores configuration in the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/goa-1.0/accounts.conf
       (typically ~/.config/goa-1.0/accounts.conf) file. The format of this file is private and
       3rd party programs or libraries should never read it. This file does not contain any
       passwords or secrets.

       See the XDG Base Directory Specification[1] for more information about $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.

SECRETS

       The goa-daemon program stores secrets (such as OAuth tokens) in GNOME Keyring[2]. The
       format of the stored secrets is private and 3rd party programs or libraries should never
       read, modify or delete these secrets.

OPTIONS

       --replace
           Replace existing instance.

       --help
           Show help options.
