Inserting javascript into a field via code without executing the code

[Jonas27]

I want to create a Catalog Item variable via code and in the "default_value" field, there should be the following code:

But when I create the Catalog Item variable by code in a UI Policy like this:

So is there a way to insert javascript code into the default_value field via code without the code being executed?
