# Code Snippets

## Why Code Snippets

Code snippets are Python code that help you do any number of things -- often things that don't easily fit into a spreadsheet. For example, programatically sending an email!&#x20;

## Using Code Snippets&#x20;

To use code snippets in Mito.

1. Open the `Code` tab in the taskpane.&#x20;
2. Click `Code Snippets` to open the taskpane.&#x20;
3. Click on the code snippet you want to use and either select `Copy Code Snippet` to copy the code snippet to your clipboard or `Write to Notebook` to automatically create a new code cell below the Mito generated code that contains the code snippet.&#x20;

## Custom Code Snippets ![](/files/zzFFlU2lZiJ9o8wTCaEt)&#x20;

Mito Enterprise users and admins can import their own code snippets into Mito, making them available to all Mito users at their organizaiton. For more information on how to import your own code snippets, reach out to the Mito team at: <founders@sagacollab.com>. &#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.trymito.io/how-to/code-snippets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
