The information referring to the passphrase is old at least.

First your UI needs to implement ConnMan's Agent D-Bus API, see
doc/agent-api.txt. Then your application needs to register itself to
ConnMan via the Manager API net.connman.Manager.RegisterAgent() D-Bus
method call. After the registration is done, ConnMan will call your
application's net.connman.Agent.RequestInput() method whenever it needs
a passphrase from the user. There are examples in the agent-api.txt
documentation of what to expect, as an example of a very simple
application handling the authentication you can look at
test/simple-agent.

The application has to set set the three Tethering* properties for the
WiFi technology, see doc/technology-api.txt for this. As an example look
at test/enable-tethering.
BTW, there is a GNOME3 extension on
github.com/connectivity/gnome-extension-connman
