What happened?

We have this code that creates a new github issue. In particular it sets labels in the labels property.

Regarding the labels property, the create issue API says that NOTE: Only users with push access can set labels for new issues. Labels are silently dropped otherwise..

As far as I understand when labels property is set then octokit.rest.issues.create method tries to create those labels first, and if label creation failed then github issue is created anyway but without the failed label.

The code was working fine but suddenly, 4 days ago, it stopped creating new labels. We authorize octokit as a github app which has all the read/write repository permissions selected.

I've tried running this code with a personal github PAT and it worked as expected (i.e. necessary labels were created).

So overall I'm not really sure where to proceed, help.

Thanks in advance.
