While composing a GraphQL to list repositories in an Organisation, what should I pass as QueryString?

Body

I am composing a GraphQL query that will list the names of all repositories in a GitHub Organisation. The query is:
search(query:$queryString, type:REPOSITORY, first: 100){ repositoryCount edges{ node{ ... on Repository{ name } } } } }
I need to pass a private organisation name as value in the queryString variable, whose current value is as follows:
{ "queryString": "is:public archived:false owner:MyGitHubOrganisation" }
This throws the following response:
{ "data": { "search": { "repositoryCount": 0, "edges": [] } } }
When I use it with is:public archived:false, it just lists all the unarchived public repos. How do I fetch all the repos in an specific organisation?

search

query ($queryString: String!) {
  search(query: $queryString, type: REPOSITORY, first: 100) {
    repositoryCount
    edges {
      node {
        ... on Repository {
          name
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

variable

{ "queryString": "is:public archived:false org:cli" }

You are limited to the following qualifiers: Searching for repositories

• owner qualifier is not supported
• use org

result

{
  "data": {
    "search": {
      "repositoryCount": 7,
      "edges": [
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "cli"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "oauth"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "go-gh"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "safeexec"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "gh-extension-precompile"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "scoop-gh"
          }
        },
        {
          "node": {
            "name": "gh-webhook"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

organization

This could be an alternative, since you already know the name of the organization and can filter out the repositories.
GraphQL API Docs organization:repositories

{
  organization(login: "cli") {
    repositories(first: 100, isLocked: false, isFork: false, privacy: PUBLIC orderBy:{direction:DESC field:STARGAZERS}) {
      totalCount
      nodes {
        name
      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "data": {
    "organization": {
      "repositories": {
        "totalCount": 7,
        "nodes": [
          {
            "name": "cli"
          },
          {
            "name": "oauth"
          },
          {
            "name": "go-gh"
          },
          {
            "name": "safeexec"
          },
          {
            "name": "gh-extension-precompile"
          },
          {
            "name": "scoop-gh"
          },
          {
            "name": "gh-webhook"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}
