Hey guys I've been looking for this for a while but I don't understand how it works, please answer here on in stackoverflow if you want, here the description:

In my project, we use ocktokit to make requests to github. it's all good, except that I need to make custom queries on issues, for istance, I want to add:

-label:bot:ReadyToSign -label:Application:AddressNotValid

how should I do?
I tried using ockokit/request API and using something like that:

 let allGithubIssues = await  octokit.request(`GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues?q=-label:bot:ReadyToSign`, {
      owner: "my-repo-owner",
      repo: "my-repo",
    });

but is not working.

I would like also to search for text into the comments or body of issues, something like

in:body or in:comments

I'm not entirely sure how to do that kind of query using the requests module.

What you can do, is get all the issues for a repo, and then filter the data by looking through their tags and body

Yeah, I'm doing that but it's kind of slow. Would be amazing if I can submit a custom query somehow
