[ENTER] on the keyboard or double-click with your mouse.
However, it will only auto-complete the function name, not the entire parameter list (which is unfortunate). It wont even replace the return type if you select another option. It will only do the function name in this example.

Thank you @Fernando Carreiro , yeah i was asking for the params too.why is there a symbol with an arrow though ? after i hit enter , just noticed
That appears even if you just do normal typing without the auto-complete, but I'm unsure what it stands for.
There are so many things missing in the documentation, and on the other hand, there are things in the documentation but were never implemented. It is frustrating!
Eureka! I've figured it out. Hit [TAB] and the parameters (and example codeblock) are filled in for you! (EDIT: Apparently I'm in the stone age and 12 years too late to this discovery 😅).

holy .... nice catch @Fernando Carreiro
It seems that instead of [ENTER] for the function selection you can also use [TAB].
So a double [TAB] when the auto completion list appears will auto complete the function name, parameters and example code block.
