I'm not sure what you mean by *wrap it in dbus-run-session*.
I use SDDM as my display manager and I start Sway from there.
My sway config also contains this line, as previously mentioned:

*# Enable screen sharingexec --no-startup-id
dbus-update-activation-environment --all*

However, I noticed that if I try running this line by itself in a terminal,
I get this output:


*jamie@localhost ~ $ exec --no-startup-id
dbus-update-activation-environment --allbash: exec: --: invalid optionexec:
usage: exec [-cl] [-a name] [command [argument ...]] [redirection ...]*
