There isn't a corresponding method for unlocking it.
## Shutting Down the Phone
The `org.gnome.SessionManager` interface can be used to check whether the phone can be shut down:
```
gdbus call --session \
--dest org.gnome.SessionManager \
--object-path /org/gnome/SessionManager \
--method org.gnome.SessionManager.CanShutdown
```
If possible then the following will be returned:
```
(true,)
```
The phone can then be shut down:
```
gdbus call --session \
--dest org.gnome.SessionManager \
--object-path /org/gnome/SessionManager \
--method org.gnome.SessionManager.Shutdown
```
## Using Applications to Provide Services
GNOME applications run using the `--gapplication-service` command line option will expose the [org.freedesktop.Application](https://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#dbus) interface on the session bus. This can be accessed to launch the application and request that it open files specified with URIs. The parameters of the API are explained by [this GApplication D-Bus APIs document](https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GLib/GApplication/DBusAPI) which refers to a different interface but which seems to overlap with the freedesktop interface.
