- Set the value of a key. Fails if the key doesn't exist or the value is out of range:
gsettings set {{org.example.schema}} {{example-key}} {{value}}
- Print the value of a key or the schema-provided default if the key has not been set in
dconf
:gsetings get {{org.example.schema}} {{example-key}}
- Unset a key, so that its schema default value will be used:
gsettings reset {{org.example.schema}} {{example-key}}
- Display all (non-relocatable) schemas, keys, and values:
gsettings list-recursively
- Display all keys and values (default if not set) from one schema:
gsettings list-recursively {{org.example.schema}}
- Display schema-allowed values for a key (helpful with enum keys):
gsettings range {{org.example.schema}} {{example-key}}

gsettings describe {{org.example.schema}} {{example-key}}
