49 <para><function>sd_bus_get_name_creds()</function> queries the credentials of the bus client
50 identified by <parameter>name</parameter>. The <parameter>mask</parameter> parameter is a combo of
51 <constant index='false'>SD_BUS_CREDS_*</constant> flags that indicate which credential info the caller is
52 interested in. See
53 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_creds_new_from_pid</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
54 for a list of possible flags. On success, <parameter>creds</parameter> contains a new
55 <structname>sd_bus_creds</structname> instance with the requested information. Ownership of this instance
56 belongs to the caller and it should be freed once no longer needed by calling
