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 enabled with ServiceNow Otto for Code.
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.
3. Review the AI-generated code suggestions and either 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 Update to save the script.  
   The code suggestion is saved within the script.  
   Note:  
   To disable autocomplete for your session, in the script editor select Code with Now Assist from the status bar at the bottom of the editor, and then clear Autocomplete.
