BlueZ 5.4 DBus API ConnectProfile GATT service UUID

Question

How can I connect to a GATT service using the DBus API with BlueZ?

I have used the BlueZ DBUS API to discover a device, connect, and discover the GATT service UUID's.

However when I try to ConnectProfile for one of the GATT service UUID's I get a error.

Answer 1

Got an answer from the BlueZ mailing list:

"So far, there is no GATT D-Bus API in BlueZ 5.x. The only way to access GATT profiles in BlueZ 5.x is using existing profile specific D-Bus APIs (thermometer, heart rate, proximity, cycling speed, HID over GATT) or using C API (like gatttool does)."

This is not supported into BlueZ 5.4
