Use it from the top level of a new task after defining the task option fields.
Once the snippet is selected, you will be prompted to select a resource name, which must be in camel case (e.g. productVariant). You can type in your own resource name if it doesn't appear in the list. This value will be propagated throughout most of the snippet block.
Hitting tab after choosing the initial resource name, you will again be prompted to choose a resource name, this time to be used within the sample JSONL preview block and the resource assignment by __typename afterwards. This resource name needs to be in Pascal case to align with Shopify resource identifiers (e.g. ProductVariant).

This snippet is most useful when generating stub/preview data for a GraphQL query.
