    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_bus_message_set_destination()</function> sets the destination service name for the specified bus
    message object. The specified name must be a valid unique or well-known service name.</para>

    <para><function>sd_bus_message_set_sender()</function> sets the sender service name for the specified bus message
    object. The specified name must be a valid unique or well-known service name. This function is useful only for
    messages to send on direct connections as for connections to bus brokers the broker will fill in the destination
    field anyway, and the sender field set by original sender is ignored.</para>
