Set cursor location in CompletionItem

I want to add numbers to the sass-indentation extension and I kind of figured out how to that, it would be nice if i could set the cursor location when the suggestion gets triggered, just like you can set the cursor location when you make snippets with $1, is that possible ?

import { CompletionItem, CompletionItemKind } from 'vscode';

const sassSchemaTest = [
  {
    name: '%',
    body: '$1%', // I want the cursor location where the '$' sign is
    description: 'test'
  }
];

export default sassSchemaTest.map(item => {
  const completionItem = new CompletionItem(item.name);
  completionItem.insertText = item.body;
  completionItem.detail = item.description;
  completionItem.kind = CompletionItemKind.Property;

  return completionItem;
});

Yes, completion items support the usual snippet syntax. Simply use a vscode.SnippetString for insertText instead of a raw string.

A string or snippet that should be inserted in a document when selecting this completion. When falsy the label is used.

completionItem.insertText = new vscode.SnippetString(item.body);
