# Generate code with autocomplete {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
The autocomplete feature of ServiceNow Otto for Code provides you with contextually relevant code suggestions.

## Before you begin

Role required: now.assist.creator

## Procedure

1. Navigate to any script editor enabled with ServiceNow Otto for Code.  
   For example, to open a script include form, navigate to AllSystem DefinitionScript Includes and select a script include.
2. Start coding in the script editor.  
   When you stop typing, a code suggestion is displayed in grey within a few seconds.  
   Note:  
   Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances auto-complete suggestions and minimizes inaccuracies or hallucinations.

   It may take a few seconds for the code suggestions to appear.
3. Review the code suggestions generated by the AI and decide whether to accept or reject them:  
   * Press the tab key to accept the code suggestion.

     If you accept the code suggestion, it's added to the script.
   * Press the esc key to reject the code suggestion or continue typing.

     If you reject the code suggestion, it isn't added to the script.
   {#generate-code-with-autocomplete__ul_rb4_vtb_n2c}
4. After accepting the code suggestions, select Save.
5. Select Update to save the script.  
   The code suggestion is saved within the script.  
   Note:  
   To disable autocomplete for your session, select Settings in the script editor and turn off the Autocomplete toggle.
