 The default setup for {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} will automatically configure {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} with the best settings for your repository. Default setup uses {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} to run {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} analysis without requiring you to commit a workflow file your repository.
 
-Your repository is eligible for default setup if it uses {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} and contains only the following {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}-supported languages: JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or Ruby. While you can use default setup if your repository includes languages that aren't supported by CodeQL, such as R, you must use the advanced setup if you include {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}-supported languages other than those previously listed. For more information on {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %}-supported languages, see "[AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/automatically-scanning-your-code-for-vulnerabilities-and-errors/about-code-scanning-with-codeql#about-codeql)."{% ifversion org-enable-code-scanning %} For information on bulk enablement, see "[AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/automatically-scanning-your-code-for-vulnerabilities-and-errors/configuring-code-scanning-at-scale)."{% endif %}

 Enabling default setup is the quickest way to configure {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} for your repository. Additionally, default setup requires none of the maintenance necessary with a {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} workflow file. Before you enable default setup, you'll see the languages it will analyze, the query suites it will run, and the events that will trigger a new scan.
