Hi @nicolas1 , 

If you're encountering issues with auto-completion in Databricks Notebooks, here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve the problem:

  1. Check Language Settings: Ensure that the language kernel for your notebook is correctly set. For instance, if you're working on Python code, make sure the Python kernel is selected. You can verify and change the kernel settings in the notebook toolbar by going to "Edit" -> "Notebook Settings."

  2. Verify Editor Settings: Make sure that the auto-completion feature is enabled in the editor settings. You can access editor settings from the notebook toolbar by selecting "Settings" -> "User Interface" and enable or disable the auto-completion feature as needed.

  3. Use Ctrl + Space: If the Tab key isn't working, try using the Ctrl + Space key combination. This will bring up the auto-complete menu, allowing you to select the desired code completion.

  4. Leverage Jupyter Keyboard Shortcuts: Databricks Notebooks support Jupyter keyboard shortcuts. You can use the Shift + Tab key combination to access help or documentation for the current object. Repeatedly pressing it provides more detailed information.

By following these steps, you should be able to address and resolve issues related to auto-completion in Databricks Notebooks.
