Yes, in that respect the changes are backward compatible. Whatever you
are getting from GetProperties can be monitored by handling the
PropertyChanged signals. You just need to be prepared that SetProperty
and other calls (Connect, Disconnect etc.) may respond with
net.connman.Error.PermissionDenied if your process doesn't have enough
privileges for that.
The idea is that the user has to be reasonably sure that a random app
pulled from Jolla Store doesn't mess with the system configuration (e.g.
doesn't enable mobile data behind your back). Most likely, a similar
fate is awaiting ofono and a few other D-Bus interfaces. Right now Jolla
Store apps can do way too much over D-Bus. We (well, at least I) will
try not to not break backward compatibility of D-Bus APIs except when
the breakage is absolutely inevitable, even though those are not
officially supported APIs.
And as always, all these changes are open for close examination at
git.merproject.org.

Can I still monitor for changes and read properties? Can you give a
more complete view what will change exactly? I am building an
universal bridge between Python and QML with integrated Platform APIs
based on DBUS and other stuff.

And keep in mind that starting with Sailfish OS 2.1.1 non-privileged
processes won't be able to set this property (as well as do a few
other connman things, e.g. manipulate the services). In order to be
able to use the restricted D-Bus APIs you would have to ask the
launcher to run your app under nemo:privileged but that would
automatically disqualify the app from getting accepted to Jolla
Store. Sailfish OS is getting security conscious!

You’re missing the property name. You need:
string:Powered variant:boolean:true

https://together.jolla.com/question/56437/i-would-like-to-toggle-internet-connectivity-via-terminal-with-dbus/
typedCall('SetProperty', [ {'type':'s', 'value': 'Powered'},

Hi devs,
I'm playing around with the Nemo DBus QML plugin but I'm a little
bit stuck when using the function typedCall().
DBusInterface{
id:/wifi/
bus:DBus.SystemBus
service:'net.connman'
path:'/net/connman/technology/wifi'
iface:'net.connman.Technology'
signalsEnabled:true
function/setState/(powered){
var/value/=/powered/?'true':'false'
typedCall('SetProperty',
{'type':'s','value':/value/},
function(){/console/.log('[INFO]wifipowerstate set')},
function(){/console/.log('[ERROR]wifipowerstate failed')})
}
function/propertyChanged/(name,value){
/console/.log("WiFichangedNAME=%1VALUE=%2".arg(/name/).arg(/value/))
}
}
But it seems that I'm doing something wrong when I try to
enable/disable wifi. It's my first attempts with DBus but I have
managed to read the signals with the plugin without any issues.
Cheers,
Dylan
